I don't know which mirrors you have tried, but I recently found one that works with Debian testing... http://ftp.kulnet.kuleuven.ac.be/pub/mirror/ftp.vpn-junkies.de/openoffice/ - or put this in your sources.list - deb http://ftp.kulnet.kuleuven.ac.be/pub/mirror/ftp.vpn-junkies.de/openoffice/ testing main contrib I was then able to install OpenOffice for the first time in months and months and months.
