Hi Anne Henmi, 2010/3/4 Stripes the Tiger Cub <bengaltigerstri...@gmail.com>: > Attached the requested files. Thanks!
Unfortunately i am unable to reproduce the configuration error - so is it possible to also attach /var/lib/dpkg/status ? You can sent this file privately to me if you don't want expose these information (= which and in which version software is installed on your system) on the internet. (beware: The file is relatively big, so you might want to upload it to a filehoster like rapidshare.com instead of attaching it to a mail) Also of interest is the file /var/log/apt/term.log (can be read only as root) The first paragraph (between Log started: and Log ended:) should be a copy of the lines which lead to the failure resulting in the broken system state you currently have and should help in identifying the evil package. You might suspect it: It would be wonderful if you could post this also. :) > Any chance of fixing this or telling me > how to remove openoffice.org so I can fix the rest of my system? You can try (after saving the two files for me ;) ) dpkg --configure -a apt-get install -f This might help, if not you can remove the broken packages with dpkg --remove and try again with the two commands above, but please read the manpage and the output of the commands carefully - and if unsure feel free to ask for more help. (make sure to copy the complete & exact error messages in this case) After that you should be able to install openoffice with apt-get again. Good luck, thanks so far and Best regards, David Kalnischkies -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
