Installing OOo 2.2.1 from backports on Stable
I have OOo 2.0.4 installed from the stable repository. I want to
install 2.2.1 from backports so I added backports to my sources.
When I try to install with "aptitude -t etch-backports install
openoffice.org", aptitude proposes an interesting solution. From
what I see, I don't think I should accept it. And subsequent
solutions seem even worse. I have included the first solution
below. My system is 100% updated, so anything it says about Vim,
MySql, etc. is a result of trying to install OOo 2.2.1.
Should I purge OOo first? This is my first attempt to install
from backports, so I am not sure about this. I have searched, but
did not find anything helpful.
