That's a feature of apt. You've used apt-get update. apt-get update only installs newer version of the package installed. If the dependencies change and some dependencies are not installed on your system net (in this case openoffice.org-debian-files) apt-get upgrade does not upgrade them. In such cases, use apt-get dist-upgrade. dselect regognizes deps anyway ans installs them. Regards, Rene -- .''`.
