6 Please DO NOT ever do this. If you want a ~arch package please
7 echo "category/package ~arch" >> /etc/portage/package.keywords

12 Also, you can simply emerge openoffice-bin and it will install a
13 binary. Portage includes a binary for ppc, you dont have to go around
14 portage or look on some website to find a binary yourself.
