--force-all never 'solves' anything, it just pushes hard enough and ignores the problems to make things appear ok. If you have a 2 ton hammer you can probably put a nail into almost anything. all the --force options (except perhaps --force-depends which apt-get easily repairs again afterwards) just hides the problem and could come back to bite you later. It may be a workaround/hack but it is never a solution. > perhaps openoffice-installation can take the normal package-integration in > amd64-port as regular package, shortly. > (without apt-get install openoffice.org-debian-files=1.1.2-2+1.0.1) > > everything works fine. Sure, the libs should work fine, but who owns the conflicting files now? the oo libs or the ia32 libs package or both or neither?
