The main problem according to me is when packages are built but 
vulnerabilities are found so they are taken off from the packages directory 
and they are not rebuilt. This is very rare on i386, but a big issue on 
macppc.. I think... 
And about OOo.. does it really work on macppc? Is the linuxPPC version 
working?
