Hi All, The new update came out (app-office/openoffice-ximian-1.9.19) and it complained that first I must unmerge the now deprecated app-office/openoffice-ximian-1.3.9-r1. Then I should use app-office/openoffice instead. So, I did as I was told but it seems that the vanilla opeoffice wants to draw in a lorry-load of gnome-base packages! ============================== # emerge -upDv app-office/openoffice
These are the packages that I would merge, in order: Calculating dependencies ...done!
