There's one in the latest i386 package snap (Nov 18), other arch
should follow gradually.

Yeah, loads of space. I powered down my i386 build box due to
electrical storms the other day and haven't put it back up yet so
I can't check just what it needs.

In mk.conf you can set WRKOBJDIR_editors/openoffice=/usr/obj/ports
(or choose somewhere else you have plenty of space). (I actually just
have WRKOBJDIR=/usr/obj/ports for everything, it's easier to clean).
