[SOLVED] OOo will not upgrade

[x1a4]

Hi,

I last upgraded on Thursday and there were a few updated GNOME libraries which upgraded OK. Today I tried to upgrade again and got a bunch of OpenOffice packages which were automatically kept back. There were no errors. I tried both the primary server and the Canadian mirror and got the same result. This is my output:

~/# aptitude safe-upgrade

Any ideas on how to diagnose and fix this?

Thank you.

The OOo packages are also not available to upgrade for me. They probably depend on some other package that is not available at this time.

The localization packages aren't ready yet.

Look for openoffice.org-help- and openoffice.org-l10n-, they are still 2.4.0.

Note that the new versions listed are only release candidates. It might be best to wait for the final release unless you're wanting to test the RC.

Yeah, it was bugging me so much having the new updates icon when I couldn't update that I removed the proposed updates option (System > Administration > Software Sources. Updates tab),

Updated en-gb language packs have now been added and OOo upgraded successfuly.
