[Solved] Install A OO 4.1.3 in Xubuntu 14.04

Without specific instructions , it appears that one simply unpacks the compressed file and uses the package manager of choice to install a .deb file.
Couple problems: which .deb and why doesn't it work?
Unpacking the .gz creates /en-US and under that is readmes and debs. Readme was pretty worthless, and there are too many debs. The ones of interest appear to be (and I'm just guessing here):
openoffice_4.1.2-3_amd64.deb
openoffice_4.1.3-1_amd64.deb
openoffice-en-us_4.1.2-3_amd64.deb
openoffice-en-us_4.1.3-1_amd64.deb
The first two return:
Dependency is not satisfiable: openoffice-ure
And the second two return:
Dependency is not satisfiable: openoffice-core01
Musings:
The previous simple setup routine used to work pretty well, but a package should work even better. If I didn't need to temporarily uninstall to get something else running, everything would have been fine. I wonder if I had installed some other way before. By the way, too bad it doesn't open .abw files. Damnation! What a lot of hassle.
