Problems with openoffice.org-filter-binfilter, refusing to install/uninstall
 

Just fell-out with Bill Gates, and have since met 'interesting' issues around here...

openoffice.org filter binfilter shows up on synaptic package manager as a recommended update, but refuses to install, says its a broken package, refuses to be fixed through the package managers ' fix broken packages' under edit, when i try to install it using the package manager, it produces the following error:

E: /var/cache/apt/archives/openoffice.org-filter-binfilter_1%3a2.4.1-1ubuntu2_i386.deb: short read in buffer_copy (backend dpkg-deb during `./usr/lib/openoffice/program/libbf_xo680li.so')

when i run 'sudo apt-get -f install' , i get:

You might want to run ‘apt-get -f install’ to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies.
openoffice.org: Depends: openoffice.org-filter-binfilter but it is not going to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try ‘apt-get -f install’ with no packages (or specify a solution).

or if i try 'sudo apt-get -f install openoffice.org-core', i get

openoffice.org-core is already the newest version.
