would allow a Java program to start to run, but getting immediately to a problem in the Bootstrap class which is not able to find the OOo binary:

You should get the Software Development Kit from your distribution or from http://api.openoffice.org, there are examples in

SDK/examples/DevelopersGuide/FirstSteps

Also, the package manager via OOo (Tools -> Package Manager) does not run.
Maybe someone could hint what the problem might be?

Hint: OOo2.3 is nearly ready to be released

Check the jre is installed in Tools - Options - Openoffice.org - Java


Also, is there an official OOo distribution for Debian/Ubuntu (expecting not to run into such problems with it)? Or is there another possibility
to install the official OOo distribution on Ubuntu/Debian?

On debian this will reveal available packages that you can apt-get:
$ apt-cache search openoffice

For experimenting you can install the OOo rpm packages into your home directory using the script on mirrors, just google for "openoffice.org/developer/install_scripts" to get an idea.
