why U don't want ot download from www.openoffice.org, there U can get newest - 1.1.4!

Newest is 2.0 Beta, but it takes a bit of work to get it integrated
into Debian.  Thats why there is an OO debian team that does just
that.

WT
2.0 beta is not too much work
tar xfvz the downloaded tar.gz file into something like /foo/foo/RPMS
do as # alien -d *.rpm           after having done cd /foo/foo/RPMS
and as # dpkg -i --force-overwrite *.deb
at last as #  chmod 555 /opt/openoffice.org.1.9.xx/program/soffice
works reasonably. allthough i doubt it is a beta. seems more an alpha.

try it out for yourself
