Hello, <paradox.her...@bluewin.ch>! Try all this commands:
sudo aptitude safe-upgrade
sudo aptitude purge ~'c'
sudo aptitude autoclean
This will remove all dependencies you no longer need (and
upgrade your system at the same time), purge all configuration
files from all the packages you have removed, and will erase
all installation packages you no longer need. All this commands
are safe, so do not worry about messing your system.
I hope this helps. Also, it is recommended you stick to the
Hardy Heron version, or to upgrade your system to Lucid Lynx to
get an upgraded version of OpenOffice.org. It is your choice.
Good luck!
