It is not my intention to start a distro war here but one could be forgiven
for guessing that anyone packaging programs for Linux would target the

up and realize that RH ceased to be the dominant platform more than 2 years
ago ??
I'm no RPM fan. I use Gentoo. Gentoo devs packages things like
OpenOffice in a Gentoo-friendly format. Surely Debian folks can do this
too? And with Debian being so much more popular than sliced bread, the
work:people ratio must be quite favourable :)
Seriously, don't hassle OOo people over something so trivial. They're
working on a great product. If you can't figure out how to install it,
then wait for your distro to package it for you.
