Hi

I made a strace on dpkg -i and at the end I see the following

readlink("/usr/lib/libreoffice/basis3.3/program/classes/sdbc_hsqldb.jar", 
"\302\f\20"...,
148) = 3
write(2, "dpkg: ../../src/archives.c:824: "..., 81dpkg:
../../src/archives.c:824: tarobject: Assertion `r == stab.st_size' failed.

an ls to that:

# ls -la /usr/lib/libreoffice/basis3.3/program/classes/sdbc_hsqldb.jar
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 73 Aug 16 09:04
/usr/lib/libreoffice/basis3.3/program/classes/sdbc_hsqldb.jar -> ???

and a file command to that:

# file /usr/lib/libreoffice/basis3.3/program/classes/sdbc_hsqldb.jar
/usr/lib/libreoffice/basis3.3/program/classes/sdbc_hsqldb.jar: broken
symbolic link to `\302\020

seams that here is something broken on the file system ...

removing that symlink solves my problem ...

probably it would be nice, if dpkg would tell which file/symlink is
broken...

Regards

  Matthias
