Can not install OpenOffice.org3

Hi All,

I would like to use Open Office 3 instead of Open Office 2.4.1 on my
Debian Lenny installation because apt-cache policy openoffice.org is
telling

--- cut ---
openoffice.org:
Installiert: 1:2.4.1+dfsg-1+lenny3

When using apt-get install openoffice.org apt is not referring to the
backports archive.

What do I do to get OpenOffice.org3 installed?

Regards

Cedric

Hi,
The line : deb http://www.backpors.org/debian lenny openoffice.org
is not necessary in your source list (and it display a typing error)

Just try

aptitude -t lenny-backports install openoffice.org

Sincerely
