[plug] Dist-upgrade on Sid

Try to remove the packages causing the conflicts, keep a note of them,
and reinstall them later.

So I would try
apt-get --purge remove openoffice.org openoffice.org-bin
openoffice.org-debian-files openoffice.org-l10n-en
openoffice.org-l10n-1.1.4
And basically, as you do that, keep listing packages that are stopping
it from being removed. (Before you list a package, I hope you have
sense to check what it is, so you don't remove core stuff! In this
case, they should just OpenOffice packages)

When you come to reinstalling them. You'll want to pull in as few
packages as possible, so not try and reinstall that whole list, just
the key ones, that depend on the required packages. For example just
openoffice.org openoffice.org-bin, of course, if you want, try and
bring in openoffice.org2 packages ;-)

Hope that helps
