Bugzilla Bug 22593

There was an upgrade of openoffice1.1 recently. It only was a new ebuild and no
new binary distribution, so this error must be in the ebuild.
The installation/autoclean removed the soffice-binary and the whole "program"
folder inside /opt/OpenOffice1.1_beta/ and so OOo is no longer usable! 
I tried emerge -C openoffice-bin && emerge openoffice-bin but it did not work.

bernd@aragorn bernd $ ls -l /opt/OpenOffice.org1.1_beta/
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           13 2003-06-11 08:00 setup -> program/setup
drwxr-xr-x    3 root     root         4096 2003-06-10 20:02 share
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           15 2003-06-11 08:00 spadmin ->
program/spadmin
drwxr-xr-x   10 root     root         4096 2003-06-11 08:00 user

There is missing something. :-)

If that helps someone:

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:

I didn't actually try it out myself, I'll mask the beta again as it is an old
version anyway, and I think it is a nice task for the new maintainer to fix.

Oops, I read too fast, it is a source version that is masked. The new ebuild
for the binary version should not touch the program directory at all. Are you
sure that the old 1.1 beta did work. The new version should only fix the kde
links.

I upgraded OOo via emerge -u world last evening and that did the corruption.
This has happened on two Gentoo-Boxes, both the same problem.

I have autoclean enabled and let emerge upgrade "world" overnight, so I cannot
say what exactly has happened. I just recognized that on those two boxes, OOo
could not be started this morning.

And yes, the old 1.1_beta DID work.

Perhaps you can view something helpful in last night's emerge.log...

app-office/openoffice-bin-1.1_beta-r1 to /

...and sorry for the confusion, I really forgot to talk about "openoffice-bin"
and not the source distribution.
As I'm not that curious, I use the precompiled version. Everything I'm talking
about is "openoffice-bin", upgrade from version 1.1_beta to 1.1_beta-r1.

I just added an ebuild for beta2 binary version. Please try it out. As far as
your problem is concerned, I found that the openoffice installer installs files
with their modification dates being the original dates. As -r1 does only differ
in one file, many files are found to be "old" by the portage cleanup process,
and removed. Unmerging first and then merging beta1 should work too. I fixed it
in the beta2 ebuild and the beta1-r1 ebuild.
