Bug description:
I have uninstalled Libreoffice and installed Openoffice. When I did
that, I seems to have some errors when I try and install other
programs such as Ubuntu Mate.
Thank you for your support. Here is what it encounters.
sudo apt-get install mate
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Note, selecting 'mate-desktop-environment' instead of 'mate'
You might want to run 'apt --fix-broken install' to correct these.
