** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: update-manager
  
  Update: extended the bug report to cover various newer duplicates of
  other OOo extensions. the core problem is the same for all of these,
  openoffice.org-voikko is just the most notable since it's in main and
  installed by default for all Finnish installations.
  
- I upgraded successfully a virtual machine from 9.10 to 10.04 with
- update-manager, but 8.04 LTS to 10.04 LTS (update-manager -d) is
- erroring out, although without breaking the system. The following error
- is gotten after retrieving new packages and moving to Installing
- packages phase:
+ Anyone with any of the following openoffice.org extensions cannot currently 
upgrade Ubuntu with update-manager from at least 8.04 LTS:
+ openoffice.org-filter-binfilter
+ openoffice.org-report-builder
+ openoffice.org-voikko
+ openoffice.org-writer2latex
+ 
+ Ubuntu 8.04 LTS -> 10.04 LTS upgrades started to be offered via Update 
Manager when 10.04.1 was released, so more duplicates are now coming in.

  Virhe suoritettaessa ("Error running")
  'E:Couldn't configure pre-depend openoffice.org-common for 
openoffice.org-voikko, probably a dependency cycle'
  Palautetaan alkuperäistä järjestelmän tilaa ("Restoring original system 
state")
  
  openoffice.org-voikko indeed pre-depends on openoffice.org-common since
  Ubuntu 9.04 where it was added at a last minute to prevent upgrade
  problems. The hardy version openoffice.org-voikko on the other hand
  conflicts with openoffice.org-core >=1:2.4.1.1, which is possibly where
  the calculation attempts stop.
  
  WORKAROUND:
  The correct order would be to remove the old openoffice.org-voikko while old 
OOo is still installed, so that unregistering is done using the existing OOo,, 
then upgrade to new OOo and, and install the new openoffice.org-voikko with the 
new unopkg offered by openoffice.org-common.
  
  (note there is another report bug #556321 on 9.10 -> 10.04 upgrade
  problems, but I can't replicate those as described there)
