I’m using the PPA ppa:libreoffice/libreoffice-prereleases
Got caught in a dependency hell recently:
sudo apt-get install libreoffice
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libreoffice : Depends: libreoffice-core (= 1:3.5.4-0ubuntu1.1) but it is not going to be installed

Depends: libreoffice-base but it is not going to be installed
Recommends: libreoffice-gnome but it is not going to be installed or
libreoffice-kde but it is not going to be installed

Tried to trace it:

My school, Campuhan College in Ubud, is in need of a more effective student management software. The school has grown a lot, and hand written excel sheet is not enough anymore.
So I tested 2 open source solution available, SchoolTool and Fedena.
Due to Zope’s dependency hell, I failed to install SchoolTool. Even adding SchoolTool PPA does not help, since the specifically recommended to upgrade Ubuntu to the latest. Since I believe that servers should run LTS versions instead of the shorter support version, this solution does not work for me.
Next come Fedena.
“Reputation is what other people know about you. Honor is what you know about yourself. The friction tends to arise when the two are not the same. There is no more hollow feeling than to stand with your honor shattered at your feet while soaring public reputation wraps you in rewards. That’s soul-destroying. The other way around is merely very, very irritating.”
“Can I offer you some consoling reflections?
First, this too shall pass. Despite the undoubted charms of sex, murder, conspiracy, and more sex, people will eventually grow bored with the tale, and some other poor fellow will make some other ghastly public mistake, and their attention will go haring off after the new game.”
Secondly, given this accusation, no charge against you that’s less exciting will ruffle anyone’s sensibilities in the future. The near future, anyway.
Third, there is no thought control—or I’d certainly have put it to use before this. Trying to shape, or respond to, what every idiot on the street believes—on the basis of little logic and less information—would only serve to drive you mad.”
Miles stared away for a minute into the middle distance. “So what you’re telling me boils down to the same thing Galeni said. I have to stand here and eat this, and smile.”
“No,” said his father, “you don’t have to smile. But if you’re really asking for advice from my accumulated experience, I’m saying, Guard your honor. Let your reputation fall where it will. And outlive the bastards.”
