What do you mean: which won't build? No problems here - I recently 
compiled both. They don't require the full gnome package.

There is a commercial program, textmaker (www.softmaker.com), which I 
have found much better than Abiword in handling word documents, but I 
doubt it supports OpenDocument.

Cheers, Erik
