I have some emerge update problems, so I wanted to ask if anyone can 
offer some advice on how to cure.

First in trying to update the system, complaints on xorg and blocked 
packages, here is a short excerpt

[blocks B     ] <=x11-base/xorg-x11-6.9 (is blocking 
x11-proto/kbproto-1.0.2)
[blocks B     ] <=x11-base/xorg-x11-6.9 (is blocking 
x11-misc/util-macros-1.0.2)
[blocks B     ] <=x11-base/xorg-x11-6.9 (is blocking 
x11-libs/libX11-1.0.1-r1)
[blocks B     ] <=x11-base/xorg-x11-6.9 (is blocking 
x11-proto/xextproto-7.0.2)

Second, since installing openoffice-bin on my amd64 system, I get the 
following...

emerge --oneshot  =app-office/openoffice-bin-2.0.2
..........
Calculating dependencies
emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy "=app-office/openoffice-bin-2.0.2".


revdep-rebuild failed to emerge all packages
you have the following choices:

- if emerge failed during the build, fix the problems and re-run 
revdep-rebuild
     or
- use -X or --package-names as first argument (trys to rebuild package, 
not exact
   ebuild)
     or
- set ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~<your platform>" and/or /etc/portage/package.unmask
   (and remove /root/.revdep-rebuild.5_order to be evaluated again)
     or
- modify the above emerge command and run it manually
     or
- compile or unmerge unsatisfied packages manually, remove temporary 
files and
   try again (you can edit package/ebuild list first)
