For what it's worth I run ~x86 and I got the same error with libwpd until I made sure I had the 0.8 slot emerged as well (emerge libwpd:0.8) It looks like it just became slotted (if I remember right.) Unfortunately I then had a problem with OpenOffice and libwpg. And had to downgrade back to 1.1.3 (and mask 0.2.0.) It looked like OpenOffice wasn't happy with a 2.0 version and still wanted a 1.0 version (but I didn't look too carefully.) However it looks like it's slotted now so you should be able to install libwpg:0.2 as well as libwpg:0.1 and OpenOffice will still work. However, I get file collisions when trying to install libwpg:0.2 with libwpg:0.1 installed right now. It might still be in the process of being fully slotted? If you don't have the libwpd:0.8 and/or libwpg:0.1 slotted versions then just emerge them too. Todd
