See tracker bug 350792. virtual/ooo packages: app-office/libreoffice app-office/libreoffice-bin app-office/openoffice app-office/openoffice-bin Please convert to a new-style virtual. Note: The virtual prefers app-office/openoffice-bin in the base profile and app-office/openoffice in the arch/powerpc and arch/sparc subprofiles. This shouldn't be a problem for conversion to new-style, since openoffice-bin isn't keyworded for these architectures.
Just to not mess up: So basically this involves... *) Adding a new virtual/ooo package *) Removing the PROVIDE line from all the packages Right? Something else to do? Also: What about profiles/base/virtuals? Do I have to change something there? And: Would I mess something up by setting libreoffice-bin as default (in virtual/ooo) and how should I do that anyway? (simply rank as first in virtual/ooo I guess, right?) Would be thankful for advice...

And see below. > Also: What about profiles/base/virtuals? Do I have to change something there? You should remove the line with virtual/ooo from the "virtuals" files in _all_ subprofiles. > And: Would I mess something up by setting libreoffice-bin as default (in > virtual/ooo) I don't think so. > (in virtual/ooo) and how should I do that anyway? (simply rank as first in > virtual/ooo I guess, right?) Yes, simply put the preferred provider first in the list.
I've now done all that, hope I didn't break anything, fingers crossed ;-) Closing
