I hadn't seen any distro that took the code of OpenOffce.org and built it for itself. Every distro created many many patches to build it under the rules of the distro, with the risk of individual issues. I saw many of such issues at that time. They had their own repository to manage their own patches and versions of libraries the had to package themselves too.
