What is described in the mentioned thread is all I know;  I don't use or 
support Debian, so I no very little about it.

Yes.  Actually, we update to TRUNK on our production servers.  The OGo 
code-base is VERY mature and things very rarely get broken. 
Unfortunately actual "releases" are very rare.  In general OGo's 
packaging needs to be revisted.

See the description of OGo versions in WMOGAG.
<http://docs.opengroupware.org/Members/whitemice/wmogag/file_view>
WMOGAG is the most complete OGo documentation available.

It shouldn't be terribly hard assuming Debian packages works at all like 
RPM packaging.  For info on building openSUSE RPMs see 
<http://docs.opengroupware.org/Members/whitemice/misc/BuildingOGoPackagesForSUSE/view?searchterm=rpm>.
There are Debian packaging bits in the Maintenance directory of the 
source,  that might be helpful;  it is where my original (now modified) 
SPEC files for RPM came from.

I have a side project to move OGo packaging to Novell's build servers 
(osc) which apparently will also build Debian packages if provided with 
the correct information. <https://build.opensuse.org>.  I've only gotten 
as far as building SOPE RPMs due to lack of time.
