Follow-up Comment #7, bug #60830 (project octave):
I tested and the fix works.
Environment: Octave 6.1.1, io 2.6.3, linux 5.11 (Ubuntu 21.04), LibreOffice
7.1.4.2.
My steps were:
Download a new .xlsx file from Google Sheets.
Check that I can open it in LibreOffice.
Make sure I can recreate the problem. At first, I couldn't, then I realized I
was using the UNO interface. So I changed the call to:
xlsopen("sample.xlsx", true, "OCT");
And now xls2oct failed.
Copied __OCT_spsh_open__.m to /usr/share/octave/packages/io-2.6.3/private
And xls2oct succeeded.
I made sure that LibreOffice could still open the file. It did. No apparent
losses to the file.
Conclusion: the fix looks good to me.
