while evaluating Ubuntu (6.10, very impressive laptop installation,
better than Windows XP for the first time!) I have been experimenting
with OOo on that platform, which seems to be an Ubuntu installation of
OOo, version 2.0.4 ("openoffice.org 2.0.4-0ubuntu4, Wed Dec 20 22:25:13
UTC 2006").

[...]
Also, the package manager via OOo (Tools -> Package Manager) does not run.

---

Maybe someone could hint what the problem might be?

Also, is there an official OOo distribution for Debian/Ubuntu (expecting
not to run into such problems with it)? Or is there another possibility
to install the official OOo distribution on Ubuntu/Debian?


Well... you should try the official OOo before all.

You might to download the package, extract it, use alien to convert the RPMs to debs, then use dpkg to install.

tar vxzf OOo.tar.gz
cd OOo/RPMS

fakeroot alien *rpm
or become root and:
alien *rpm

dpkg -i *deb
cd desktop-integration
dpkg -i *deb

Then try it again and let us know.
