--- Comment #27 from Alex Thurgood <[email protected]> ---
@Jos : from my own experience with the PPAs, I can say that they often contain
some rather unfortunate packaging bugs, where the user can end up with things
not working as they ought to if you just downloaded the daily release builds
from the official LO site. Of course, it does mean that you don't get the
system integration that you are supposed to get with the Ubuntu PPAs, but I've
not found that to be a problem.

As for the version numbers I've given, they are from my own builds of the
master source repository, which I build on a 32bit Linux (KDE or Pear) and a
64bit Linux (Bodhi 2.0) as and when I have time (and the build actually
completes, which is not always at the moment, depending on the switches you
choose at build time). All of these distros rely on the basic Ubuntu
repositories for the developer software needed to build LO, so it is something
you could do yourself if you wanted to, it just takes quite a lot of time, and
the occasional sense of frustration when the build fails for some seemingly
trivial change from one day to the next.
