What concerns me are the two following sections. Note, I still
have a lot to learn about Debian, therefore some of my concern is
me being cautious so as not to break anything.

Now I suppose that is understandable because those are all
affected by openoffice.org. But I was not expecting to see them
reported as BROKEN.

Why does Aptitude think these packages could be updated? As I
stated in my original message, it is completely up-to-date before
I try installing OOo 2.2.1.
I guess I will give it a shot over the weekend when I have time
to fix any breakage.
