I recently installed Star Office 5.2 on my bsd box, and got it to run.
I used the multiple file installation type. You can change any path if
you like, it should still work.

It works like this:

* Run soa-5_2-ga-bin-linux-en.bin, install in /usr/local/adabas.

* Run sop-5_2-ga-bin-linux-en.bin, install in /usr/local/soplayer
(this step is optional).

* Run so-5_2-ga-bin-linux-en-000.bin /net, let it do its things,
install in /usr/local/office52.

* Do this:

# cd /usr/local/office52/program
# cat /somewhere/soffice.patch | patch
# cat /somewhere/setup.patch | patch
# cat /somewhere/jvmsetup.patch | patch

# cd /usr/local/adabas/adabas
# cat /somewhere/setup.patch | patch

(see below for actual patch files)

They'll say something like:

Hmm...  Looks like a new-style context diff to me...
The text leading up to this was:
--------------------------
|*** soffice.orig       Sun Aug 13 17:29:57 2000
|--- soffice    Sun Aug 13 17:30:16 2000
--------------------------
Patching file soffice using Plan A...
Hunk #1 succeeded at 18.
done

Now StarOffice understands everything about /bin/test (I hope).

* Now you should perform your "workstation" installation. Login as
yourself, and type:

$ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/adabas/adabas

This fill fix the libvosGCC[blah].so error.

Run:

$ /usr/local/office52/program/setup

It will complain about not being able to find Adabas, but it will install
anyway.

If you used the default paths, ~/office52/soffice will start Star Office...

Does anybody have any idea about the lost Adabas? I don't understand
where Star Office is looking for it...

If you make Star Office work with java (jdk1.1.8) please drop me a note :-)

bye,
  Jimmy
