There was a review of several office/productivity apps in Linux Weekly News'
"On The Desktop" section last week, (not the just-now Thursday, but the one
before).
You can probably do alright by using
apt-get -b source <packagename>
...as long as the source of the given app was good to go for the PPC platform.
I don't, however, have direct experience with Debian/PPC, only a lot with
"i386" aka intel-clones, and 1 sparc. The sparc wasn't meant to be an end
user type box *and* it wasn't a laptop :> so that's not useful for this
question anyway.
