amd64-archive (openoffice) dpkg ERROR HELPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP



Hello,

For some reason, Goswin's amd64-archive deb package is giving me grief that it 
didn't used to.

I am running testing...

My apt sources.list contains...

deb http://amd64.debian.net/debian testing main contrib non-free
deb-src http://amd64.debian.net/debian testing main contrib non-free

uname -a gives:
Linux Goliath 2.6.11-9-amd64-k8 #1 Wed Jun 29 17:33:01 CEST 2005 x86_64 
GNU/Linux

When I run  <<< dpkg -i amd64-archive_0.2_amd64.deb >>> as root

I have tried several versions of the archive including the most recent, all to 
no avail.  The version below is the one that worked the last time I setup Oo.

I get the following output...

Goliath:/home/brianw# dpkg -i amd64-archive_0.2_amd64.deb
(Reading database ... 115680 files and directories currently installed.)
Preparing to replace amd64-archive 0.2 (using amd64-archive_0.2_amd64.deb) ...

dpkg: error processing amd64-archive (--install):

Errors were encountered while processing:

Any help would be greatly appreciated.  There is so much that I do not 
understand YET! :-)

Thank You in Advance!!!

Making a daily effort to rid myself of microsoft products.  Alas...my lack of 
expertise in linux makes this too slow a process.  Never giving up though!
