cd /usr/ports/devel/stlport make install clean This solved the problem for me. libstlport_gcc.so (provided by the stlport port) is needed by libnpsoplugin.so. I assume you installed (like I did) openoffice from a binary package by pkg_add. Apparently the openoffice binary package installation does not cause installation of the stlport port as a dependency, although it installs the firefox plugin libnpsoplugin.so which does require the stlport lib. I could not figure out where and how firefox has been instructed to look for the openoffice plugin though. I run openoffice 2.0.0 and the libnpsoplugin.so resides in /usr/local/openoffice.org2.0.0/program/libnpsoplugin.so. However, I didn't find this path or a link in the firefox config.
