Emerge wrecks OpenOffice install: here's the fix

[niord]

How to fix OpenOffice so that it will start.

I was getting the "abort" error when trying to start OpenOffice after
emerging it. Rather than unmerge (which wasn't going to work anyways and
is pretty deadly to do considering it rips out dependencies) I looked around a
bit and found the answer in:

/opt/OpenOffice.orgX.X.X/program/setup

I clicked on "setup" and the OpenOffice install began. It then proceeded
to put the correct files in the respective directories which emerge
failed to do miserably.

Started up OpenOffice and no problems.

How anyone gets anything done with all the mistakes that are made with
emerge is beyond me. It's a nice idea but it is really lacking.

Well, here we go, onwards to solving whatever the next problem is.
