There, you've answered your question yourself :)
When I last checked, they didn't run (some problem in 1.9.69 I think,
even though 1.9.65 worked). I didn't see the recent announcement and
forgot to check the latest build.
But the point of the exercise is to get the latest possible version,
which is what openoffice.org's rpms provide.

I will be glad when they are available :)
