Hmm, I can remember some problems like that. The cause is that the file
90gnome from the gnome-1.4_beta2 package must be installed first.
The packages you named compile without errors but can not find the other
gnome packages and do not add
the support for that. For example oaf needs ORBit support and gconf
gdkimlib.

This is a new problem. The older versions of ebuild resolved runtime
dependencies of a package after the package was merged. This did not
fully work because some packages require binaries from rdepend packages 
in their plk_postinst functions. So now rdependen packages get merged
first and after that the package.
Additionaly packages can now only be merged if all rdependencies are
resolved.

So in the old days (about a month ago) we simply merged the gnome-1.2
package first and after that all the gnome-stuff compiled without
problems.

There could be a workaround. If we make packages for the env-files and
add these env packages to the build/runtime dependencies of all gnome
packages the problems should be solved. But all the dependencies of
packages not installing into /usr and depending on an environment coming
from one of the /etc/env.d/ files
(beside 00basic) must be updated.

:-) Mozilla needed about 2 1/2 hours here. It's a mess to experience
with such a package.

Anyone out there who want's to make a package for openoffice ?

Yes that is definately a good decision.
