Binary package hint: openoffice.org

Tried to upgrade my machine from karmic2lucid.

Exception during pm.DoInstall(): E:Couldn't configure pre-depend openoffice.org-core for openoffice.org-filter-binfilter, probably a dependency cycle.

Could not install the upgrades

The upgrade is now aborted. Your system could be in an unusable
state. A recovery will run now (dpkg --configure -a).

The upgrade is completed but there were errors during the upgrade
process.

no way around this to upgrade. This machine was originally a Jaunty Machine before I upgraded it to Karmic.
