Hi Alexandre,

I didn't know about python -S. Thanks for sharing that.

About the aeroo reports packages: I just keep a copy of the LibreOffice
installation debs from somewhere like
http://download.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/stable/3.6.5/deb/x86/LibO_3.6.5_Linux_x86_install-deb_en-US.tar.gz.
and I have a small script that installs them to the buildout using dpkg-deb:

dpkg-deb -x deb_file.deb /path/to/buildout/sandbox

and then I add the appropriate directory to sys.path:
/path/to/buildout/sandbox/opt/libreoffice3.6/program.

Regards,
Mike.
