Problem description: On ubuntu 12.04, libreoffice 3.6 beta 2 is not installable because the packages ure and uno-libs3 depend on each other. Steps to reproduce: 1. Remove all libreoffice packages. 2. Type in terminal: sudo apt-get install ure 3. Type in terminal: sudo apt-get install uno-libs Current behavior: You will receive the following error messages: 1. ure : Depends: uno-libs3 (= 3.6.0~beta2-0ubuntu1~ppa1~precise1) but it is not going to be installed E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. 2. uno-libs3 : Depends: ure (>= 3.6.0.0.beta2~) but 3.6.0~beta2-0ubuntu1~ppa1~precise1 is to be installed E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. Expected behavior: These packages should install fine. The current situation blocks the entire libreoffice from installing. Platform (if different from the browser): ubuntu 12.04, 64 bit Browser: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:15.0) Gecko/20120628 Firefox/15.0a2
The installation attempt was done using this ppa: https://launchpad.net/~libreoffice/+archive/libreoffice-prereleases/
Not a LibreOffice upstream bug. Should be fixed now, thanks to fixes by Rene Engelhard.
