Package: openoffice.org
Version: 1.0.2-2
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks the whole system
When using FAI or a similar autoinstaller, many packages may be left
unconfigure because of circular dependencies between openoffice.org
packages. apt-get is called with a _long_ list of packages to install,
which are partly fet unconfigured if one of them fails to configure.
besides such circular dependencies violate debian policy:
Depends: blah
in blubb means package blah has to be configured before configuration
of blubb which is quite impossible if blah depends on blubb, though work
sometimes; in these cases, dpkgs behaviour get chaotic: sometimes it
works, sometimes not...

As the bug reporter, I confirm this. I even didn't remembered that
Matt didn't closit, waiting for input about it.
Hence closing myself.
Thanks for the reminder. We may probably now revive the things you
disabled in tasks, don't you think (changes in tasksel 2.18)?
These myspell-* packages are of some importance for good working
localized OO installs.
