I received an email with an attachment in .doc format. I clicked to open with default program - LibreOffice Writer. All I got was a brief display of the LibreOffice flash screen. I tried to open from MATE's Application menu - failed likewise. Tried to do a complete removal with intention of doing a re-install. Tried to do the re-install receiving a "fix broken packages" response. Got a failure message: > E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. > E: Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages. > E: Unable to correct dependencies > E: Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages. > E: Unable to correct dependencies > What should I do? I have no particular need/desire for the suite as long as there a Debian program capable of _displaying_ *.doc files. TIA
