Hi,

emerge -vp app-office/libreoffice

shows that the USE flag  -java  is in effect.

How to find out where this comes from?

I've checked  /etc/portage/package.use  /usr/portage/profiles  and  /
etc/make.conf

Many thanks for a hint,
Helmut.

euse -i java 

will show you where this flag is set (check man euse for symbols).

Thanks Pandu,

it turns out, the '-java' use flag is turned on by default.
But I don't know why. I've just noticed that I can turn it on.

OOo was run out of Sun remember. It uses java for a whole whack of 
scriptable stuff, most notably database integration iirc.
