 The icons are available in the openoffice3 distribution (in 
 sysui/desktop/icons/hicolor/*/apps/) but with the wrong names for what 
 the .desktop files want.  I deal with it here with a local package 
 (available at http://www.mcs.vuw.ac.nz/~mark/oo-ecs.tgz) that has renamed 
 copies of the icons but somebody could just modify the openoffice3 package 
 to install those files (with the appropriate name changes).  I just did it 
 as a separate package so that playing with it didn't involve rebuilding 
 something that takes all night to build.
