Right. What I think happens is as follows: This file is needed and is now in ttf-opensymbol. openoffice.org depends on ttf-opensymbol. So ttf-opensymbol is installed first (and therfore leaving that file in place), then openoffice.org is tried to be upgraded and tries to delete that directory because it is not in that package anymore but fails to do that because it is there and non-empty because ttf-opensymbol already has it. It doesn't look perfect but I don't think this is a bug and I have no idea how to prevent dpkg from doing this and why this would make sense.... Grüße/Regards, René -- .''`.
