*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 58424 ***

If update-manager can't fix anymore stuff you could try to use "sudo
aptitude upgrade", "sudo aptitude dist-upgrade" (these are likely to
generate errors too), then as a last resort "sudo aptitude remove
[packages that seem broken here]", to try to break the dependency cycle.
You might have to simply remove completely Open Office and maybe Xorg,
too, and after you can do a "sudo aptitude dist-upgrade" without anymore
errors, you can get the system to a reasonable state with "sudo aptitude
install ubuntu-minimal ubuntu-base ubuntu-standard ubuntu-desktop" (or
something like that).

But you'll need to be careful when removing things, because if you
remove something needed for network access or for apt-get, you won't be
able to fix it except by reinstalling.

This is a bit extreme a solution, you should wait a bit for other
answers, maybe there's a safer way.
