Hey Everyone,
I really want the OO.org 2.0 beta, but its not in portage
snip
http://packages.gentoo.org/packages/?category=app-office;name=openoffice-bin
The latest beta is in the portage tree but it's keyword masked.
echo app-office/openoffice-bin ~* /etc/portage/package.keywords
emerge openoffice-bin
Im getting a problem though.. After I enter in your command,
I did an emerge search to get the size of the download, but it
says the latest version is still 1.1.4, and I just did an emerge sync
a few hours ago... Any ideas?
Yes... This suggests that you've either made a typo or otherwise not
successfully unmasked the file.
Now, I'm looking at the OO.o-bin entry in packages.gentoo.org,
openoffice-bin 1.9.109

openoffice-bin-1.9.104.ebuild:
Missed two new rpms, which breaks stuff for some. Fixed. Install
changing all the time is really anoying.
alpha amd64 arm hppaia64mipsppc ppc64 ppc
macos s390sparc x86
1.9.109 - M~ - - - - - -
- - - M~
and it looks to me like it's double-masked; hard-masked and by keyword.
This is supported by my own settings (I have 1.9.109 installed myself).
So first you have to disable the hard mask:
echo 'app-office/openoffice-bin' /etc/portage/package.unmask
(make sure that /etc/portage exists first-- the echo command can create
the file if it doesn't exist, but not the folder, so will fail in that case)
and then the keyword mask:
echo 'app-office/openoffice-bin ~x86' /etc/portage/package.keywords
This should allow you to get a hold of the app you want. Works for me,
anyway.
If it still doesn't work, check for typos inside the file itself (in a
root terminal with nano, or a gk/kdesu text editor, as only root can
edit these files)-- I'm becoming rather famous with myself for echoing
to /etc/portage/packagecommawhatever rather than
/etc/portage/packageperiodwhatever (yeah, I can't half type)-- this
and other typos will prevent the entry from being correctly read, thus
not telling Portage that you want the package made available to you.
HTH,
Holly
