I have been running 8.04 (pre-release) for some time now. Things were working smoothly till now (Feb 16, 2008). Now, an auto-update caused this problem and now I am unable to upgrade/install any packages. I keep getting a message that there is a broken package that needs to be fixed. On my system:
* broken package = language-support-writing-en (installed version = 8.04+20080214; latest version = 8.04+20080214) * package that WON'T install = openoffice.org-hyphenation-en-us (installed version = none; latest version = 2.3-5) It seems that the "broken package" (language-support-writing-en) depends on an as yet "uninstalled package" (as per properties). On trying to apply changes (install openoffice.org-hyphenation-en-us) I get the following error: "E: /var/cache/apt/archives/openoffice.org- hyphenation-en-us_2.3-5_all.deb: trying to overwrite `/usr/share/myspell/dicts/hyph_en_US.dic', which is also in package openoffice.org-hyphenation" Please note that all of my package management (upgrades and new installs) are ON HOLD! I cannot play with synaptic and/or any other package management app in Ubuntu any more. So, I would request urgent help on this. -- package openoffice.org-hyphenation-en-us None [modified: /var/lib/dpkg/info/openoffice.org-hyphenation-en-us.list] failed to install/upgrade: tentando sobrescrever `/usr/share/myspell/dicts/hyph_en_US.dic', que tamb?m est? no pacote openoffice.org-hyphenation https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/179109 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
