AFAIk, OO used a separate site for add-ons and the like, was this an add-on?
It might have been, but I don't think so. I'm sure it was in the repositories, though not there now. I'll look on the OO site later and if it's there I'll install it. Some of the presentation backgrounds I used from OO in the past are represented properly in LO, so it should be compatible. I'll get back regarding this and possibly record a bug with LO
Depending on licensing issues, everything should be in Debians repositories.
My preference is to use only Debians repositories for LO stuff.
Well, yes, everything with both OO and LO are.
I can never remember seeing a contrib or non-free package, but then I've never looked until today, just to make sure.
Regards and thanks,
