At some point there was a working deb of OOo, 1.1.2 I believe, on alioth. It installed fine other than forcing a shared file issue with ia32-libs. It was actually 32bit though not 64bit, that is the closest I have seen anyone in here get. As far as I know, I haven't seen any other 64bit distros running OOo. It has been said that 2.0 should be able to build 64bit cleanly.
