This bug is still very simple to reproduce - simply do a fresh Gutsy install, then immediately apply all updates. ttf-opensymbol will fail, causing all openoffice packages (15 more) to also fail, due to dependency problems. A really frustrating few minutes while I sorted this out, especially as the error message is so unhelpful, and apt kept the packages in a weird cache - I couldn't try to force a repeat of the update, but as soon as I installed an unrelated package, all the openoffice packages attempted (and failed, until I solved the problem) again.
