Currently, debian users and users of non-rpm-based distros have to struggle with
rpm packages. Why not a firefox-type installation? So to install, you would have
to do the following:
1. download openoffice.tar.gz
2. tar xvzf openoffice.tar.gz
3. cd openoffice
4. ./soffice

and you're done. This is much easier and distro friendly. 
thanks

PS. Current (cpu hogging complicated) workaround:
