I did something like emerge openoffice  halt and left
the computer alone for a night. So I couldn't see that
output. Sorry.

Now it works. Thanks.

genlop -i openoffice will show you the USE flags used to emerge it.

[gentoo-user] OpenOffice help files

2006-11-03 Thread Bertram Scharpf
Hi,

in OpenOffice, when hitting F1, I only get a dialog saying:
The help file for this topic is not installed.

I cannot find any package or USE Flag. Asking Google I only
get noise.

The package installed is openoffice; I did not realize there
is a precompiled version openoffice-bin at that time.

I myself will stick using TeX but I am convincing other
people that Linux and OpenOffice is a better choice. So this
problem comes in very inconventient for me.

Thanks for any hints in advance.

Bertram

I've noticed that when asking about package related problems it is a
nice idea to send at least tho output from emerge category/package
-pv.  ;-p

My suspision is that you have doc flag disabled. Please, check if
emerge -pv app-office/openoffice gives you -doc. Also the same could
be hecked with euse -i doc if have app-portage/gentoolkit installed.

Is it possible you don't have the java USE flag enabled? The openoffice
ebuild contains the following warning:

You are building with java-support disabled, this results in some 
of the OpenOffice.org functionality (i.e. help) being disabled.
If something you need does not work for you, rebuild with
java in your USE-flags. Also the xml use-flag is disabled with
-java to prevent build breakage.
