For posterity, since my AMD64X2 was not on earlier:


Optimus ~ # emerge -p openoffice

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies
!!! All ebuilds that could satisfy "openoffice" have been masked.
!!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your
request:
- app-office/openoffice-2.0.3 (masked by: package.mask, -amd64 keyword)
# 2005/10/24 Simon Stelling <blubb@gentoo.org>
# Don't even try to compile openoffice-2.x, it won't work.


For more information, see MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge man page or
refer to the Gentoo Handbook.
