I suppose the debian folks have no problem to build a debian package starting

I guess you can also run "alien" to install the latest beta RPM binaries on a
debian-based system.
Finally, I have seen that the build process uses a kind of "meta-package
builder". I suppose it could be adapted to generate .deb packages too. No?
I don't use (or particularly care for) Debian, either, though. :-)
There are a bajillion distributions out there. If you plan on primarily
distributing OOo in binary format, you can't decide to package it in a
distribution-specific package management system.
