There is no squeeze backports. If you mean lenny-backports, it will be
in some days.

Yes. Read -15s debconf message (which is a big part of the "fix"):
_Description: Component registries might be corrupted
You are upgrading from a version which might have corrupted
service/component registry files (*.rdb), especially
/var/lib/openoffice/basis3.1/program/services.rdb and the rdb files
in /var/spool/openoffice/uno_packages/cache for installed extensions.
.
If you experience problems with the component manager or segmentation faults
involving libstore in either unopkg or OpenOffice.org, please check these
files. Try cleanly reinstalling the packages and/or using a clean user
profile.
Not that it wasn't mentioned in other bugs already...
(But note -14 still will write bogus files in some cases...)
Grüße/Regards,
René
