I take it this means that no one has volunteered to support OGo on Debian?

I don't mind trying to tweak some of the packaging scripts to work with 
new dependency names and submitting a patch, although I can't promise to 
do much more than that.

Here are my initial observations of packages that have a new 
name/version in lenny.  Are the lenny versions of these packages likely 
to be supported without code changes?

etch        ->   lenny
libobjc1   ->  libobjc2
libldap2   ->   libldap-2.4-2
libpq4      ->   libpq5

The other etch packages I needed were drawn in by the four packages 
listed above.

Is there a set of regression tests I can run to discover if my install 
is good?

I had a brief look at the logs while playing with the web interface, 
nothing immediately appeared to be broken or complaining.

In that case, it may be possible to tweak the Debian control file to 
depend on libpq5 instead of libpq4
