            Bug ID: 142360
           Summary: functions are no longer available in the base
                    (database tool) component
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.1.3.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Base
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: mjc at avtechpulse.com

Description:
If I open a report in libreoffice base (database reporting), I no longer have
access almost all of the built-in functions that the function wizard would
normally show. A screenshot of the mostly empty base function wizard is
attached.

The calc (spreadsheet) function wizard does show many available functions. A
screenshot of the full calc function wizard is attached.

The above problem is seen on Fedora 34,
libreoffice-base-1:7.1.3.2-1.fc34.x86_64

I have also attached two screenshots showing the situation in Fedora 33 with
libreoffice-base-7.0.5.2-1.fc33.x86_64. In both the base and calc function
wizards, a full range of functions is available.


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a report in design view
2. add a text field in the detail area
3. F4 to show the right sidebar
4. Click "data" tab
5. Set data field type to "Field or Formula"
6. Click "..." in the "Data field" entry
7. Observe the launched Function Wizard

Actual Results:
Only "AUTHOR" and "TITLE" are shown as available functions.

Expected Results:
Many functions should be listed, starting with ABS, ACOS, ACOSH, AND ...


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
Works on Fedora 33. Does not work on Fedora 34.
