Re: [MLUG] OpenOffice won't run in Gentoo after update

[George Robb <EMAIL:PROTECTED>]

Have you emerge -C oo  (clean out the cruft)  then emerge -uD OO (make  
sure a dependancy isn't missing?)  of course put the p on the emerge  
to see what happens first ;)

Is there a particular feature of OO that you really need?  (Abiword,  
Gnumeric, Thunderbird, etc... are all basic solutions that can get you  
by and are very quick emerges)

Do you have anything exotic in your USE flags?  (Side note have you  
played with ufed)?

Hope this helps,

George
