Hullo Jonathon, > > So what is the trick to install it? > I didn't install from CD - I download all 10 files and then started from there, but because there was something like 70MB of zip-file, and another 130MB when this was unpacked, this did nasty things to my /usr area :'/ I noticed that the files needed to be in /usr/ports/distfiles/staroffice5, so I put them onto another device, and did an "ln -s" from /usr/ports/distfiles across to where the staroffice5 directory actually was. Worked just fine (after I straightened a few other things out, like the Checksum of the concatenated zip files being different from the single 70MB zipfile expected by the Make.)
