"pandas.read_excel"

Documentation problem

When engine="odf" is used and pyodf is not installed it gives an error that you should install optional dependency odf as pip or conda install odf. This pip/conda command fails because there's no module called odf. This could also be a security vulnerability if someone puts a malicious "odf" module on pypi.

Suggested fix for documentation

The error should ask you to install odf using pip or conda install pyodf
