This was discussed in previous posts. To fix: apt-get update apt-get upgrade rm /var/cache/apt/archives/*freetype* dpkg -r --force-depends libfreetype6 libfreetype6-dev freetype2-demos apt-get -f install Now you can 'apt-get upgrade', etc and you can install openoffice.org from http://www.linux-debian.de/openoffice/ Jamie Strandboge
