not long ago, ooo depended on blackdown java, and have a look at your ebuild:
if [ -z "$(/usr/bin/java-config -O | grep "blackdown-jdk")" ] &&
[ "${FORCE_JAVA}" != "yes" ]
then
eerror
eerror "This ebuild has only been tested with the
blackdown port of"
eerror "java. If you use another java implementation,
it could fail"
eerror "horribly, so please merge the blackdown-jdk
and set it as"
eerror "system VM before proceeding:"
eerror
eerror " # emerge blackdown-jdk"
eerror " # java-config
--set-system-vm=blackdown-jdk-<VERSION>"
eerror " # env-update"
eerror " # source /etc/profile"
eerror
eerror "Please adjust <VERSION> according to the
version installed in"
