Erm. you misunderstood something.
openoffice.org-common_<whatever>_all.deb (former openoffice.org) and
openoffice.org-l10n-*_<whatever>_all.deb will and have to exist still.
Just openoffice.org (former openoffice.org-bin) will be changed to
_{i386,powerpc,s390,sparc,...}.deb etc. so that a openoffice.org package
does not appear on arches where there is no binaries for them. The other
_all packages *will* remain in the Packages files though.

And? What has a pacxkage update with a minor bugfix release from
upstream to do with a big change in the package structure?

There is even more time after the sarge release :)
