This is more of a problem than it looks because the Ubuntu apt daemon can't deal with it and crashes. Errors were encountered while processing: libo-dev3.5-dict-en_3.5.0-1_amd64.deb libo-dev3.5-dict-es_3.5.0-1_amd64.deb libo-dev3.5-dict-fr_3.5.0-1_amd64.deb susan@susan:~/Downloads/DEBS$
Seems to be Linux due to report. @Susan Cragin Please check your LibO version selection(Looks like "Libo-Master") and contribute a complete build identifier.
I have been getting builds from http://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/daily/Linux_x86_64_Release_Configuration/master/current/ This is the one I tried today. http://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/daily/Linux_x86_64_Release_Configuration/master/current/master~2011-10-01_12.06.37_LibO-Dev-SDK_OOO350m1_Linux_x86-64_install-deb_en-US.tar.gz I have tried all of them, I think, within the past week. All report the same problem with installation. I use Ubuntu 64-bit oneiric with all current updates.
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dpkg/+bug/865581 Have also filed a bug with Ubuntu.
Here's what happens when I try to force-install one of the dictionaries. It's the same error I get, repeated 3 times, when I do the regular install. susan@susan:~/Downloads/DEBS$ sudo dpkg -i --force-all libo-dev3.5-dict-es_3.5.0-1_amd64.deb (Reading database ... 206129 files and directories currently installed.)

Looks like you are trying to install extensions before libreoffice itself and thus registering the extension in libreoffice fails (as it is not there yet).
(In reply to comment #5) > Looks like you are trying to install extensions before libreoffice itself and > thus registering the extension in libreoffice fails (as it is not there yet). That may be. All I do is navigate to the DEB file and then the only command I give is as follows; sudo dpkg -i l*.deb
Created attachment 51998 [details] installation log for DEBS without Dictionaries, and then dictionaries separately I tried removing the dictionaries from the DEBS file and then installing. That worked without error (see attached). I put the dictionaries in another folder DICTS and then tried force-installing them. It did not work, showing the same errors as before. So maybe the install order is not the problem.
