I recently installed DLS to my hraddrive and now wanted to find out if the old machine could still run OO.o 2.0x.
Unforunatley "MyDSL" just offers OO.o 1.1.4 and 1.1, so I added repositories to apt-get that surely had the new OO.o . (I tried a few seperately)
However, it appears that apt-get refuses to install OO.o in a newer version for some reason. (It lists the dependencies and claims that it will not install them and in the end asks if broken packages might be involved, which is surely not the reason)
Can someone here explain why apt-get does not want to install the 2.0x version and how I get around that?
Moreover it looks strange that in Synaptic OpenOffice is listed when the new repositories are updated but as soon as I make a tick for installing the program undoes my the ticks and does not let me install OpenOffice.

Thanks in advance for the help...

Thanks people,

I didn't know what "UCI" was for, so I never looked at that place. No wonder I could not find it. :-)
