Whenever I do "emerge openoffice-bin" I get the following error: Calculating dependencies ...done! >>> emerge (1 of 1) app-office/openoffice-bin-1.1.3 to / >>> md5 src_uri ;-) OOo_1.1.3_LinuxIntel_install.tar.gz >>> Unpacking source... >>> Unpacking OOo_1.1.3_LinuxIntel_install.tar.gz to /var/tmp/portage/openoffice-bin-1.1.3/work >>> Source unpacked. >>> Test phase [not enabled]: app-office/openoffice-bin-1.1.3 >>> Install openoffice-bin-1.1.3 into /var/tmp/portage/openoffice-bin-1.1.3/image/ category app-office * Installing OpenOffice.org into build root... /usr/lib/portage/bin/ebuild.sh: line 90: ./setup: No such file or directory !!!

Strangely, if I emerge version 1.1.1 I get the same error: Calculating dependencies ...done! >>> emerge (1 of 1) app-office/openoffice-bin-1.1.1 to / >>> md5 src_uri ;-) OOo_1.1.1_LinuxIntel_install.tar.gz >>> Unpacking source... >>> Unpacking OOo_1.1.1_LinuxIntel_install.tar.gz to /var/tmp/portage/openoffice-bin-1.1.1/work >>> Source unpacked. >>> Test phase [not enabled]: app-office/openoffice-bin-1.1.1 >>> Install openoffice-bin-1.1.1 into /var/tmp/portage/openoffice-bin-1.1.1/image/ category app-office * Installing OpenOffice.org into build root... /usr/lib/portage/bin/ebuild.sh: line 89: ./setup: No such file or directory !!!

If you need support, post the topmost build error, NOT this status message. I've tried running the "setup" file myself by hand from the following directory but it gives me the "./setup: No such file or directory" error again. Its almost like the setup file is trying to call something else and can't find it but its a binary file so I've no idea what it could be.

So I know what the problem is and I've fixed it on my system but I believe this should still remain as a bug. It seems I was missing /lib/ld.linux.so.2 but the setup program didn't tell me this as I think it should. When I ran this emerge command, it installed /lib/ld.linux.so.2 and emerge/setup ran as expected. emerge -va1 emul-linux-x86-baselibs emul-linux-x86-glibc So again, this bug should now be related to the openoffice setup program not reporting a decent error message if required libraries could not be found.
Still the setup program not reporting which library is missing is another problem (and won't be "fixed" sooo), so closing this
