Hi tylerwylie and daark.child,

In such a case can I run;

# emerge -pv openoffice-bin

to get OOo?

If problem found on running it later can I uninstall OOo?

TIA

B.R.

Hello once again,

Sorry for the bad advice earlier, I was talking about the i386 version of OO, forgot that you have a amd64 sistem. The one you want is openoffice-bin, you can see here which versions are masked and which are stable.
