Is the items in the following terminal window now broken?

I should NEVER run things such as this when I'm half asleep. I was installing LibreOffice from .deb and I forgot to change directories to my ~/Downloads/office directory. Instead I ran the command in ~/Downloads where there are several .deb files. Here is the output from my procedure:

mickee@mickeymouse2:~/Downloads$ sudo dpkg -i *.deb

I re ran sudo apt update and upgrade, fixed broken packages and it SEEMS to be ok. Moral of the story: Make sure you are in the right directory!
