Thnx for this hint, Jack. Chris splittet the packages up and we had no
change to test it, because, the first powerpc packages which is splitet

can you try them out please?

that is right .. I will test it out with the _all package from
openoffice.vpn-junkies.de.
I will also upload my deb (all of 1.0.1-1) to
