    Thanks colin that got me past that message but now I have a host of
    problems. First of all it never completed the upgrade of the scrollkeeper
    package now i get:
    # apt-get upgrade
    Reading Package Lists... Done
    Building Dependency Tree... Done
    The following packages have been kept back:
      scrollkeeper
    0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 1 not upgraded.

    More importantly my openoffice seems to be screwed up i think it had
    something to do with perl being upgraded and that somehow screwed up my
    locales. My locales are just C and POSTFIX but when I run openoffice I
    get:
    starting configuration import into user data ..
    .. importing layer file:///tmp/oooLocale.XXXXyD0zzf - succeeded
    I18N: Operating system doesn't support locale ""

    If I reconfigure my locales to include en_US.UTF-8 I then get this:
    #openoffice
    Starting configuration import into user data ..
    .. importing layer file:///tmp/oooLocale.XXXXtBkvKq - succeeded

    And now with the en_US.UTF-8 set to default i get all these funny
    characters on lots of screens like the reconfigure screens and man pages.
    I had C set to the default locale before but when you reconfigure it it
    doesn't seem to be an option to fix the funky characters i have to
    reconfigure locales and remove en_US.UTF-8. I tried removing and purging
    openoffice and reinstalling with no luck.

    Please help
