Greetings: I have downloaded the port for StarOffice5.1 from the ports collection and the executable from Sun, and all the dependency packages from FreeBSD.org I am running FreeBSD 3.3 and have added the "3.3 or 3.4 to 3-stable upgrade kit". The "make" built with no problems. I tried a "make install" as I would for a normal port, but but it gave me the following error: ===> Installing for staroffice-5.1a Error: category linux not in list of valid categories. *** Error code 1 I then read further and changed to a special shell: /compat/linux/bin/sh and added /compat/linux/bin to my path and tried to run setup which gave me the following error: bash# ./setup /usr/tmp/sv001.tmp/setup.bin: error in loading shared libraries: libvos517li.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory despite the fact that the library libvos517li.so is right there in /usr/ports/staroffice/work/tmp I have read the StarOffice and Linux Emulation sections of the Handbook and searched the questions-freebsd archives, and read the article on the www.freebsddiary.org page but so far nothing explains this particular problem. Still not certain if the "make install" method and the ./setup method are both valid ways of doing it. Any help would be appreciated.
