Doesn't seem faster, and the menus changed from icons to text, but it works fine...
I have now also found time to try out OO 3.2. The missing icons are due to openoffice.org-style-* files that were not upgraded by the above commands. To upgrade all the other openoffice.org packages that are already installed one additionally needs
Code:
apt-get install openoffice.org-style-crystal openoffice.org-style-galaxy openoffice.org-style-hicontrast openoffice.org-style-tango openoffice.org-emailmerge
(I guess only galaxy is really needed to get the icons back in the standard configuration.)
As to startup speed, I now get slightly above 1 minute when launched the first time, and when repeated around 45 sec. (time until the cursor appears in oowriter). With 3.1 it remained around 1 minute.

EDIT: The timings were for debbie. Curiously, in LXDE I get lower values - sometimes just 30 secs for repeated launches of oowriter.

EDIT2: @qole, what about securing a version of all OO3.2 armel packages in sid in case it gets again withdrawn or broken in the next versions?
