Maybe Go-Oo and OpenOffice.org should be considered differently...
I've successfully installed and used OpenOffice.org and LibreOffice
side by side, during the 3.3 beta phase, using the LibreOffice
community-supplied downloads. I haven't tried with the repo-provided
installation (I removed OOo beforehand)...

IIRC, a lot of the stuff from Go-Oo was integrated into LibreOffice,
and maybe that's the "problem"?
