I thought the question was clear, but now I think that it wasn't. I
already had openoffice installed, but with alioth packages and following
a weird process to install it, like "apt-get install
openoffice.org-debian-files=3.1.2". I couldn't update it. So I decided
to try with Goswin's package. Take a look at
http://amd64.debian.net/~goswin/amd64-archive/.

You were right, maybe you don't know of Goswin's package. It's very
useful if it works. And if Goswin will add Mplayer with w32codecs and
Wine, we will be able to run the only applications that we may miss in
amd64 without a chroot, but like a pseudo-multiarch. (Please don't flame
on this comparison)
