Hi list,

it seems that backports' openoffice.org 3.1.1 has been uninstallable for
several weeks now. On one of my machines I have an old 3.0.1 which works
ok.

Is there anyone out there who managed to run a version of openoffice.org
3 on lenny? What is the best approach?

Thanks for sharing your experiences!

Johannes

# aptitude -t lenny-backports install openoffice.org

worked. I previously tried unsuccessfully to select backports' version
of openoffice.org in interactive mode. That refused to install due to
many 'circular' broken packages.

Cheers,
