Interesting, I didn't think that was possible. Does this come with a _separated_ build for all the components that have such a corresponding package, or is it simply not containing the binaries for the "other" components? For example, you could build a whole OO or LO suite and just have one selected binary installed, but that wouldn't be very precise regarding the question "Writer only"... If it would be possible to have the components as separate ports in FreeBSD it would be helpful for selectively installing stuff, e. g. if only one or two components of the office suite are really needed (or allowed!) to be _built_ and installed. -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ...
