No, doesn't work. Even dist-upgrading to the fixed version with conflicts
doesn't work since apt wants -f install anymore. Even after removing -dev
and -dev-doc it fails on all(?) of the other preinsts.
Clean upgrades work but once you are stuck here you probably need a hammer
to get out of it.
Like manually dpkg -r/-P ing the packages.
(I did # dpkg -P `dpkg -l | grep libreoffice | grep ^i | awk '{ print $2 }' | xargs` python3-uno)
No idea how to get out of this by package actions, sorry. Then again, this
is testing/unstable/experimental... (Shouldn't happen, but..)
The fix for "clean" upgrades works for me and will be uploaded RSN.
Sorry for the breakage.
Regards,
Rene
