Hi, i just installed OpenOffice with the emerge openoffice-bin and i got OpenOffice version 1.1.5. I was wondering.. because the OpenOffice website has version 2 avaiable, if its possible to emerge openoffice version 2.... i didnt see anything on the gentoo-portage.com.... what about simply downloading + installing? How does one go about doing that? I downloaded it and thers a bunch of files with extenion *.rpm... and im not sure how to use them or which one to use...

openoffice-bin-2.0.0 is still marked unstable. If you want to install it anyway do the following:

Code:

echo "app-office/openoffice-bin ~x86" >> /etc/portage/package.keywords
and then

Code:
emerge openoffice-bin
