+libreoffice (1:6.1.3-2) unstable; urgency=low
+
+ * The JDBC Driver used for JDBC Access by the LibreOffice MySQL driver
+ (NOT libreoffice-mysql-connector) contained in this package has been
+ changed from MySQL to MariaDB (libmysql-java -> libmariadb-java). See
+ http://bugs.debian.org/913360 and https://bugs.debian.org/912916.
+
+ This also involves changing the classes used in the code, so using
+ libmysql-java and com.mysql.jdbc.Driver does not work anymore.
+
+ If you want to connect to MySQL or MariaDB databases over JDBC, use
+ libmariadb-java.
