Problems with emerge or ebuilds? Have a basic programming question about C, PHP, Perl, BASH or something else?

I have installed the current version of app-office/libreoffice-bin and I am used to calling localc or lowriter in a terminal and these are no longer there, you have to call libreoffice-bin and choose them from a list. How can I get back to having /usr/bin/localc and /usr/bin/lowriter available?

I never knew about these commands, but you can emulate them with an alias in your .bashrc

Code: Select all

alias localc='libreoffice --calc'
alias lowriter='libreoffice --writer'
