    Trouble reinstalling openoffice

    I replaced openoffice with libreoffice, but now I want to go back and apt-get isn't working:

    Code:
    Reading package lists... Done

    Reading state information... Done
    Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
    requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
    distribution that some required packages have not yet been created

    The following information may help resolve the situation:
    
    The following packages have unmet dependencies:
     openoffice.org : Depends: openoffice.org-core (= 1:3.2.1-7ubuntu1.1) but it is not going to be installed
                      Depends: openoffice.org-writer but it is not going to be installed

    E: Broken packages
    Ubuntu Software Centre says:

    Package dependencies cannot be resolved. This error could be caused by required additional software packages which are missing or not installable. Furthermore there could be a conflict between software packages which are not allowed to be installed at the same time.

    I uninstalled libreoffice in a pretty sketchy way, i.e. selected a few things in the software centre that said "libreoffice" and told it to uninstall them.

    How can I get openoffice back?

    Try the vanilla version: [Ubuntu] Installing OOo on Debian and Co.

    But you have to make sure there is no broken packages left first.
