View Full Version : [SOLVED] [SOLVED] 8.10 and new Software updates

I came in this morning and found that some updates where ready for 8.10.

I start the update manager and it tells me that it can only do a partial update because of a possible problem. It lists a few things that may be the problem:
Last update did not complete
problem with installed software
ect....

I choose partial update, it starts by checking the system and installed software and then pops a window with a list of programs that I am told the update will not run because of. The only software that is on the list is OpenOffice 3.0

I would like to do the update, but I don't have time to uninstall / reinstall OpenOffice. If that is the only way, then I'll report that as a bug and see if they can fix it.

Close down the update-manager. Then, open a terminal and post the outputs of these two commands.

Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

You get that warning message probably due to http://ppa.launchpad.net in your /etc/apt/sources.list.

Can you post your /etc/apt/sources.list?


cat /etc/apt/sources.list

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/openoffice-pkgs/ubuntu intrepid main <--- This may be the issue then. When I updated to 8.04, OpenOffice 3.0 was not part of the repository. Not sure if it is yet or not, have not checked to see.

OpenOffice is still version 2.4.1 on my Intrepid. So if you want to upgrade it to 3.0 from that repo, then you have to answer the question with y.

I went ahead an answered Yes to the question and the update went through

Thanks for the help.

I edited the line in /etc/apt/sources.list so that it would not process when running the update:

deb-src http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu intrepid-security multiverse
# deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/openoffice-pkgs/ubuntu hardy main
# deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/openoffice-pkgs/ubuntu intrepid main <---

This seems to have fixed the problem. Once OpenOffice 3.0 becomes part of the distro or shows up in the repository, I'll change it back and should not have any problems.
