Building on Ubuntu 9.10

[Stephen R. Besch]

I had similar problems with libgoffice 0.8 when building 2.3.7 on 
Karmic. Had to roll back to older version of libgoffice (see my posting 
on 11/03/2009). Thankfully, the older version is still in the repository 
so you can use synaptic to uninstall libgoffice-0-8-dev (you should 
leave the newer libgoffice-0-8 in case anything links to it) and install 
(the oddly named) libgoffice-0-dev. This will also pull in the matching 
library. Make sure you reconfigure so that it knows about the newly 
installed headers.
