Hi!

after upgrading my Kubuntu 8.10 / Kde 4.1.x I get the following error:


It seems that the recovery has failed. Please fix manually (try dpkg --configure -a and/or apt-get -f install) in terminal...

The error was:
APT Error. Context:

I've installed the stable openoffice 3 and it worked great. I removed all openoffice packages, since then I get the error. Any idea?

THANKS!!
