Getting openoffice 2.X to install on Debian stable - Continnued



Hey i managed to install java by adding the following source to 
/etc/apt/sources.lst

deb http://mirror.aarnet.edu.au/pub/java-linux/debian/ stable non-free

I hope this can be of some help to someone else!

But now to my problem... i still cant get openoffice.org to install even though i installed java. 

My sources.lst file only consits of:
deb http://www.backports.org/debian/ sarge-backports main
Everything else is commented out.

Now apt complains about other dependencies:

-----------------------------
$apt-get install openoffice.org

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.

Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  openoffice.org: Depends: openoffice.org-core (> 2.0.0) but it is not going to be installed
                  Depends: openoffice.org-writer but it is not going to be installed
                  Depends: openoffice.org-calc but it is not going to be installed
                  Depends: openoffice.org-impress but it is not going to be installed
                  Depends: openoffice.org-draw but it is not going to be installed
                  Depends: openoffice.org-math but it is not going to be installed
                  Depends: openoffice.org-base but it is not going to be installed
E: Broken packages
