We will see the results of the alias set up by Kendy. I do absolutely realize that downstream packagers should do a better job dealing with OOo; but apparently both our build system and the actual environment (Linux distros) make it very difficult to make a good job. This situation is not satisfactory at all, but I'm not going to have our adoption hampered just because we don't have enough QA resources to even educate, cooperate with and help out downstream packagers.
