Hello.

I have noticed I cannot create pivot table with the version of LO Calc (5.1.1.2) that is running on my Linux Mint.

I first thought I did not know of a designed feature that was preventing me from creating pivot tables but I also tried with sample files used in tutorials about pivot tables, so with which I should normally be able to create a pivot table easily.

Since my computer has a dual-boot with also Windows 7 installed on it, I booted Windows and opened the same files with installed version of LO (5.0.5.2) and to my surprise I was able to create pivot tables with the same files and the same data !

I suppose this is a bug in LO Calc 5.1.1.2, a quite annoying one.

The version of LO I am running is the default version in the Linux Mint 17.1 depots.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Take a file with data tables (provided two with which I found the problem).
2. click on any cell of a data table (examples : cell H7 of sheet 'U1+U2' for file 'Parc machines et Bilan production ALPEN TECH.ods' and cell C4 of sheet 'SourceData' for file 'Stooge.ods')
3.In the main menu, select Data > Pivot table. 
Actual Results:  
The list of options in Data > Pivot table only includes two items ('Delete' and 'Refresh'). No option 'Create' is offered.

Expected Results:  
Shoud show the 'Create' option. Or did I miss something ?

Hello, it's in menu Insert> Pivot table or you can use button on toolbar.
