In version 7.1, clicking on the ODT file has no effect. I see that a new tweak has been added: "Change the programs that are run when opening files/URLs" and I added the following tweak:
openers_by_scheme = {'odt': 'libreoffice --writer %u'}
This had no effect. Can anyone tell me what I'm missing?
I CAN right click on the extension and select LibreOffice Writer and the program opens just fine, but this is pretty clunky.

If a format (e.g. ODT) is not checked in the
Preferences->Behaviour->Use internal viewer for: list, calibre will open the file in the OS default program setting for that file type.
To discover what calibre is seeing as the default program for ODT, try right clicking the ODT in Book details, and then hover on Open with… — if Writer's not there, fix your OS defaults. If it is there
