try.

I guess that is a distinction of which I was not aware. Are you saying
that Ubuntu is shipping a slightly different version from that which
is available directly from OOo? That I should download the latest
version directly from OOo and install it over the Ubuntu version?
I am definitely not inclined to use RCs or betas.
Just out of curiosity, is there a detectable rationale for Ubuntu's
provision of a buggier version of OOo than Open Office itself ships?

Well, the Ubuntu version is actually Go-oo (as far as I know) rather than
OpenOffice.org. So is the case with other well known
GNU/Linux-distributions as well, for example OpenSUSE and more.
Go-oo has some advantages over OpenOffice.org, so maybe it's better for
some users in some cases.
