[gentoo-user] Trouble with openoffice2 starting up.

[gentoo-user] Trouble with openoffice2 starting up.

[Dennis]

I don't use OpenOffice very often.  At some point, I seam to have
upgraded some dependency that is causing OpenOffice not to work any
longer.  I was running openoffice-bin.  I tried compiling the source to
see if that fixed the problem but I still have the same issue.  The
Initial Screen loads up but the progress bar stops about 1/3 the way
through and then nothing ever happens.

rt_sigprocmask(SIG_BLOCK, [INT CHLD], [], 8) = 0
_llseek(255, -77, [6707], SEEK_CUR)     = 0
clone(child_stack=0,
flags=CLONE_CHILD_CLEARTID|CLONE_CHILD_SETTID|SIGCHLD,
child_tidptr=0xb7e6a6f8) = 9597
rt_sigprocmask(SIG_SETMASK, [], NULL, 8) = 0
rt_sigprocmask(SIG_BLOCK, [CHLD], [], 8) = 0
rt_sigprocmask(SIG_SETMASK, [], NULL, 8) = 0
rt_sigprocmask(SIG_BLOCK, [CHLD], [], 8) = 0
rt_sigaction(SIGINT, {0x8077c60, [], 0}, {SIG_DFL}, 8) = 0
waitpid(-1,

All of the ooXXX programs stop in exactly the same place.

I'm running gentoo-sources 2.6.14
glibc 2.3.5-r2

If I kill the program, that gets rid of the soffice process but I still
have to execute an additional kill -9 <soffice.bin> process before that
will exit.

Thoughts?
