Its a long story. Basically I want to convert a Microsoft document to
PDF within PHP (Yes, this is yuck). Google research revealed the best
way to do this is using python-uno to communicate with
OpenOffice. python-uno works fine with openoffce.org2 in Debian
experimental. Unfortunately, the system I need to get this running on
is Ubuntu hoary, not Debian. I couldn't get python-uno to work in the
old openoffice.org2 in Ubuntu hoary. openoffice.org2 in Debian
experimental won't install due to the libc6 version. Hence my crusade
to rebuild it.

In the past I have rebuilt lots of things for Debian stable
(especially woody when it was stable), but nothing nearly as big and
complicated as openoffice.org2.
