Tried this this morning, and got the following errors. It appears distinct from the bug #34452, the only other bug concerning openoffice on amd64. To this non-programmer, it looks as though some questions of variable initiation/type are taking place in the initial configs. Let me know what else I can provide to help. Also, I noted the warning about cflags. From a quick look at the ebuild, it seems that of my cflags, all but -pipe are being filtered out.... >>> emerge (4 of 4) app-office/openoffice-1.1.0-r3 to / >>> Downloading ftp://mirrors.tds.net/gentoo/distfiles/gpc231.tar.Z --11:05:35-- ftp://mirrors.tds.net/gentoo/distfiles/gpc231.tar.Z => `/usr/portage/distfiles/gpc231.tar.Z' Resolving mirrors.tds.net... 216.170.153.145 Connecting to mirrors.tds.net[216.170.153.145]:21... connected.
