I have heard from different persons, that this will work for every debian-based distribution. :) And additionally, there's the possibility, to wait a couple of hours, and you find deb-packages in the debian repositories. (I really know, that René Engelhard, the debian-maintainer for OOo, had committed OOo-packages to 'unstable' - I guess. I'm not sure about this, because I'm using a rpm-based distro.) So, where's your problem?
