** 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)
