Upgrading mozilla doesn't help because the patch to make it work with the new freetype2 hasn't been committed to the ports tree yet. I found after I had posted my question that there is actually a discussion of this issue on the freebsd-openoffice mailing list. So now I'm subscribed to that list as well. I do hope this isn't a trend towards every port having it's own mailing list though. For now, to build openoffice-1.1, you have to 'make -DWITHOUT_MOZILLA install clean' for it to work. Since I'm not a programmer, I can't offer you much help beyond that. Christopher
