This however was no small task - there's precious little usable information in any one place on how to do this, especially not from the official Collabora site that just wants you to use the Docker image [re-asside: yea, that's one reason I hate Docker...]. Luckily, a GitHub user by the name of `m-jowlett` has written about his processes in a log [over at his GitHub page](https://gist.github.com/m-jowett/0f28bff952737f210574fc3b2efaa01a) [`m-jowett/log.md` should this link eventually rot]. His guide is however extremely rough, as well as using Ubuntu and building for integration with another project featuring OwnCloud. It however gave me most of what I needed to get going with this, including help integrating the final package with my OwnCloud instance(s).

As mentioned briefly above, my philosophy in BLSE2 is "use a package" - this is a core feature of Debian, and one of the most solid examples of quality forethought in design in the Free Software world. By separating applications from their libraries, you keep security updates easy and with minimal administrative work. As such, I always choose to build a package if I can, and luckily with LibreOffice Online I can. And it's right there in the repo! A huge win in my mind, especially considering my initial fear of a program distributed as a Docker Image [re-re-asside: poor dependency lifecycle management and monolithic software bundles - another reason I hate Docker; but I digress]. As this is a brand-new project and I'm a keen `dist-upgrade`er, I've gone with the brand-new Stretch (9.0) release in the `amd64` arch - you should probably be running the same, but 32-bit will work too.
