Which packages did you downgrade? I had a ton of problems with rc2-2
which were fixed when I went back to rc1-1. Here is the combination of
packages that currently works for me:

$ dpkg -l openoffice.org\* python-uno libicu34 | grep ^ii
ii  libicu34                         3.4.1a-1       International Components for Unicode (libraries)
ii  openoffice.org                   2.0.4~rc1-1    OpenOffice.org Office suite version 2.0
ii  openoffice.org-base              2.0.4~rc1-1    OpenOffice.org office suite - database
ii  openoffice.org-calc              2.0.4~rc1-1    OpenOffice.org office suite - spreadsheet
ii  openoffice.org-common            2.0.4~rc1-1    OpenOffice.org office suite architecture indepen
ii  openoffice.org-core              2.0.4~rc1-1    OpenOffice.org office suite architecture depende
ii  openoffice.org-draw              2.0.4~rc1-1    OpenOffice.org office suite - drawing
ii  openoffice.org-help-en-us        2.0.4~rc1-1    English_american help for OpenOffice.org
ii  openoffice.org-hyphenation-en-us 20030813-3     English (US) hyphenation pattern for OpenOffice.
ii  openoffice.org-impress           2.0.4~rc1-1    OpenOffice.org office suite - presentation
ii  openoffice.org-java-common       2.0.4~rc1-1    OpenOffice.org office suite Java support arch. i
ii  openoffice.org-math              2.0.4~rc1-1    OpenOffice.org office suite - equation editor
ii  openoffice.org-writer            2.0.4~rc1-1    OpenOffice.org office suite - word processor
ii  python-uno                       2.0.4~rc1-1    Python interface for OpenOffice.org

I had to use some --force-conflicts and --force-depends wrangling to
make dpkg install these from my package cache.
