[gentoo-user] Corrupt files in OOo build?

[gentoo-user] Corrupt files in OOo build?

Hi All,

After a mammoth session on an old machine, which crashed, I ended up with 
these files that refuse to be deleted:
===============================================================
# 
ls -la /var/tmp/portage/app-office/openoffice-2.3.0/work/ooo/build/OOG680_m5/lingucomponent/unxlngi6.pro/misc/

===============================================================

(the "?" symbols are shown like this on my terminal too).

I am about to start a new emerge of OOo, but would think that I should first 
remove this mess just to be sure.  How do I do that?  Tried chmod and chown.  
The files are owned by portage:portage, but chmod-ing them fails.

I think my problem is that I cannot delete these files, either individually or 
by deleting the parent directory.  Is there a way I could force-delete them?

That sounds like file system corruption.
Try to boot from a live cd and run fsck. Don't forget that the partition 
needs to be unmounted and you might need to apply -f to your fsck command.

Thanks, I'll have a go with an old LiveCD, but I am bit concerned that this 
the third time in as many months that this old box is suffering fs corruption 
(I think it has been different partition each time).  It's either excessive 
fragmentation, or I should install smartmontools to check if one of the 
drives is on its way out.
