If you use Debian, you must be used to installation via apt-get. Adding a new apt repository in your /etc/apt/sources.list is what needs to be done, and there is an excellent OpenOffice.org in Debian site for help out there; after-which you can just perform an apt-get install openoffice. This method resolves dependencies. If you are tracking the unstable branch of Debian (currently Sid), then simply running apt-get install openoffice.org-bin is what you need. You may also find the additional packages helpful: openoffice.org-debian, openoffice.org-gnome, openoffice.org-help-en, myspell-en-gb, myspell-en-us.
