Title:
  Cannot run applications that use System.Data.OleDb

Status in “mono” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: mono

  Running KUbuntu 10.10

  When running applications that use System.Data.OleDB, mono throws a
  System.DllNotFoundException, stating that it can't find libgda-2.so.3
  (try the example code at http://www.mono-project.com/OLE_DB).

  At the very least there ought to be some documentation as to why this
  fails, why this library is referenced but not installable (on any
  available version since Hardy...). The closest note (on a mono mailing
  list -- google for it) I could find is that it's "not important
  functionality". Be that as it might, it's not ok to randomly make that
  bit of the API useless, since it IS used in code. If that's not
  available, some sort of link to porting instructions from OleDb to
  whatever API is acceptable would be useful.
