Ah. Base.

Sure.. No, this is *NOT* a free text field. "unknown" isn't recognized

Yes, this *is* expected. Because Base is disabled because the database checks
in the testsuite failedi (since 3.5.0).
What you see (and try to install) here is remaints of the old 3.4.6-2 binaries,
which will get removed by the ftpmasters somewhen semi-automatically when all
architectures of LO are in sync.

Unless you fix Base on powerpc - there won't be Base there anymore.
This still is no bug in libreoffice-base (as that doesn't exist anymore), but
of course there's the wish and/or the "bug" that Base isn't there for powerpc.
