Thank you very much. I have question/bugreport about OOo 1:3.0.1-7ubuntu1 from openoffice-pkgs ppa - why openoffice.org-core 1:3.0.1-7ubuntu1 package from Ubuntu Jaunty doesn't depend on librdf0, while packages from PPA depends on this library and forces Intrepid and Hardy users to install lots of unneeded packages, like libmysqlclient and mysql-common...

I've found a bugreport from <email address hidden> in Debian about this problem (http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=511841), Steve wrote there:
"For the time being, OOo is switching back to use the bundled copy of redland in Ubuntu"
If you are using bundled copy of redland in official Ubuntu OOo build, why don't to use the same build config in openoffice-pkgs PPA builds ? I think it's better to have as identical builds as possible to give Ubuntu 8.x users a possibility to test new OOo and find Ubuntu Jaunty's OOo bugs.
