    The update manager also states at the end of it's run to do the following..

    "deborphan: The status file is in an improper state.
    One or more packages are marked as half-installed, half-configured,
    unpacked, triggers-awaited or triggers-pending. Exiting.

    Reading package lists... Done
    Building dependency tree      
    Reading state information... Done
    You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these."

    Doing so finishes the install. The repository responsible for libreoffice is a PPA maintain by the Libreoffice team. Not sure if they are aware of the extra step needed this time.

    "You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these."

    That worked for me. Thanks for the info.
