I think I have pinpointed the origin of the breakage in the
current openoffice.org 1.0.1-1 packages on debian ppc sid. I diff'd
the changes in the files between the Jul 14th and Jul 16th builds of
openoffice.org_1.0.0-pre1.0.1rc3_all.deb. I notice that there
is an installation database in usr/lib/openoffice/program/instdb.ins
which is filled with different values for the filesize and timestamp
depending on which arch it was built on. In particular, the Jul 14th
copy of openoffice.org_1.0.0-pre1.0.1rc3_all.deb appears to have
been built on ppc...

Note that the second build of this package, which fails to run on ppc,
was built on intel. Also when I check the same file in the current
openoffice 1.0.1-1 packages I find it was built on intel so its not
surprising the package is broken on ppc.
