May it be due to blackdown java ?
Wouldn't it be possible to make an ebuild which installs 32bit java on amd64 and change the OOo binaries to small scripts which change the JAVA_HOME variable and start ooffice? That would solve all those problems imho. Sure, the correct solution would be to get a 64-bit OOo working...I read that there are already ebuilds in the gentoo forum, maybe those could be added to portage hardmasked!? cheers, dominik -- [email protected] mailing list
