I think I have things set up now to use the right sources to upgrade my knoppix 3.2 install to debian unstable. I got my usual anxiousness to move to a new level when kde 3.2 came out and messed with things. As it moves into unstable, I have resolve to just stay with unstable rather than install other new packages before they get there.

On this quest, I have run into a problem. When I do an apt-get upgrade I get this:

root@full:/home/ken# apt-get upgrade

You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these.

I have tried apt-get -f install as shown below. I have tried to remove the open-office package that creates the conflict but apt-get won't remove it for the same reason it won't install the many packages it is trying to upgrade.


I have poured over apt howto and google searches, but I am stuck. Can someone tell me the magic words to solve this???

Thanks.

Ken
