Title: package openoffice.org-voikko 2.1-1build3 failed to install/upgrade:

[Raphaël Hertzog (hertzog)]

The initial error seems to come from APT which fails to install openoffice.org-core because it failed to deal with a conflict and thus dpkg failed...

Selecting previously deselected package openoffice.org-core.
dpkg: regarding .../openoffice.org-core_1%3a3.2.0-7ubuntu4.2_i386.deb containing openoffice.org-core:
 openoffice.org-voikko conflicts with openoffice.org-core (>= 1:2.4.1.1)
  openoffice.org-core (version 1:3.2.0-7ubuntu4.2) is to be installed.
dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/openoffice.org-core_1%3a3.2.0-7ubuntu4.2_i386.deb (--unpack):

Errors were encountered while processing:
 /var/cache/apt/archives/openoffice.org-core_1%3a3.2.0-7ubuntu4.2_i386.deb

I'm reassigning it to apt but it might be possible to fix openoffice.org to not trigger the problem. So reassiging there too.
