The amd64 architecture is compiling fine automatically and produce all the needed packages. But the software is still quite unstable and need to be tested and debugged. > Anyway, anyone knows the state of the former and the latter, or the > plans?

One more time, openoffice :)
Hi,there are experimental ubuntu amd64-native packages for OpenOffice according to [1]. Apart from that, a couple of days ago non-official packages (re-built from the debian unstable sources) were posted in this list, but I haven't had the time to test them quite a lot. In fact, I have a bug: the first time I start OpenOffice, it crashes, but the second time it works... ?¿ Anyway, anyone knows the state of the former and the latter, or the plans? Rene, are you alive? ;)Greets,Rafael Rodríguez[1] http://lwn.net/Articles/199390/
