Hello All,

I've just emerged openoffice and unlike other apps, I don't see any icons for it in KDE 3.0.2. Does this mean the package manager left this up to us? I've done a whereis openoffice and still can't find it.

Please bare with me as I'm still FRESH MEAT in linux. Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks!
:)

The install does not add desktop shortcuts for oo. There were a couple of threads discussing this. The program location is:
/opt/openoffice/program/soffice
or something like that.

I would suggest you emerge gentoolkit. Then, after installing a package, you can do:
Code:

epm -ql <package_name>

and it will giveyou a list of files installed by the package.

Yes it's located somewhere in /opt/openoffice
You should run it from there, and then you can do a per-user install.

Good luck
