No changes were made to update-openoffice-dicts since March. What happens if you run # dpkg-reconfigure openoffice.org-common or / and # apt-get install --reinstall openoffice.org-common (or the same with sudo from a non-root allowed user). If none of the above fail I may think about a temporary problem in perl itself during installation. Something nearly impossible to reproduce exactly. -- Agustin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
