It's not that easy for every package. For instance openoffice and openoffice-bin need to got to the same location, cause OOo does a user install and this will break when changing between them (and all the settings / paths and so on). So either we would have both in /opt which then means that the source based OOo is ignored too, or we have them in /usr/lib which results in the ooo-bin annoyance. I would say the second one is less harmful. Btw, there is a long running bug about the revdep-rebuild, which also has a solution for this: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=32276 bye Andreas -- Andreas Proschofsky Gentoo Developer / OpenOffice.org
