When I installed 3.0 I did it by downloading the tarball from
OpenOffice.org and installing it manually. I decided that if I can
install it via Synaptic it might solve some of the problems, or at
least it is worth a try.

So I opened Synaptic and noted that there were 34 packages for 3.0,
plus 11 more 3.0 packages marked "brand modules," whatever those are. I
tried to do just a reinstall, but reinstall was not an option. Probably
that is because they were installed outside of Synaptic. So I just
uninstalled all of them.

Then I added the above repositories and reloaded the repository list.
Afterwards I no longer have an of the 3.0 packages listed in the main
section of Synaptic, but there are 34 packages of 2.4.1 listed as
upgradable to 3.0. 

I don't want to upgrade because that would replace my 2.4.1.
Considering the problems I am having with 3.0 I need to keep 2.4.1. So
I guess all I can do is go back and reinstall manually from the tarball.
