Hi Russel,
Thanks for your reply. I'm trying to install the OOo
binaries. It looks like I don't have Java already in
my system. I tried a
[code]
emerge --pretend java
[/code]
and it is not it.
I would like to have OO 2.4, so I guess that I'll have
to figure out how to install a minimal Java.
On a second tought, there should be somewhere a cup of
Java, otherwise how will browsers know what to do with
applets?
I'll dig out :-)

Hi Sorin
I am running a 64-bit gentoo, but doing an emerge -s java I see:
app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-java
This gives the 32-bit library
There is also dev-java/java-config and
dev-java/sun-jdk
which I think are compiled as 64-bit
My understanding is that most browsers are using javascript which is not
the same as java the language used by OOo. Java is not essential to run
OOo, but it is necessary for the wizards and the database I understand.
