I get the same backtrace whenever I run: $ emerge -p openoffice I don't know if this is important, but I tried upgrading to openoffice-1.1.0 about a week ago, and it barfed. Maybe it left portage in a bad state. I only see this with openoffice. Might openoffice be in your list of packages? Or did you have a previous emerge failure? NOTE: I don't actually know what to do about it in either case. But this could be useful information in the bug report. - PK > What should I do? > > -- > > Copyright is a temporary loan from the public domain, not property. > > > -- > [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
