If the build stops again at a *different* spot, then repeat as needed. If it finally finishes without error, then there is one more step remaining: #ebuild /usr/portage/app-office/openoffice/openoffice-3.2.1-r1.ebuild qmerge > Before I start again, shall I switch to libreoffice-3.3.1 or is it not yet as > polished as OOo? I'm using it without problems so far. Some of the principal devs quit the OO project to start libreoffice. My gut feeling is that libreoffice will capture the market, but I have no real evidence to offer either way.
