Hello Ubuntu users,
I am a newbie and having a problem that 
I have no idea how to solve. When try to install
anything using
Synaptic I manage to install the programs but I get an
error about openoffice. It says:

 E:
/var/cache/apt/archives/openoffice.org2_1.9.79.2-0ubuntu2_i386.deb:
 
subprocess new post-removal script returned error exit
status 1

For example when I tried to install openvpn and secvpn
I got:

I have no idea what all this means. 
Any idea?
Thanks in advance.
