Public bug reported:

Previously I somehow managed to manually install libreoffice.  I've been
using it for months now and want to keep using it.  Recently within the
Spreadsheet app ("OpenOffice Calc"), it said that an update was
available.  Tried to update within the app itself, but that failed so I
left it as-is at least for a week or more.

Today when I did a "sudo apt upgrade -y", that command is now erroring
out with unmet dependencies, something to do with libreoffice-core.  I
haven't figured out what to do about it yet.

See https://pastebin.com/B4TKtbwp

I'm unsure what to do about this.  Please email me at
[email protected] if you have any suggestions.

At the very minimum I would like to keep my system up-to-date with
making it so the "sudo apt upgrade -y" command doesn't error out.

Thanks!
