You're right, the only thing is that openoffice uses the library interface of |
| 23 |
java. As such you need a 32bit for the 32bit openoffice. (2.0.4 is supposed |
| 24 |
to compile in 64 bits). A 32bit jdk could be installed manually, by use of a |
| 25 |
modified ebuild, or by using a binary package. |
