One option is to download a package off the OpenOffice.org site and install that ... the only difficulty there is finding the older dependent packages and getting them installed first. But the OpenOffice Package would still build the Java stuff wouldn't it or do you think the issue is with the openoffice-1.1 port? Not too familiar with using FreeBSD on a desktop, mainly used it previously as an email, file etc, server. Just thought it would be great to start using it on the Desk since there are so many Open Source Desktop apps coming out. --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

Just checked out the status of the port and it looks like it is broken. www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/ports/editors/openoffice-1.1 -Original Message- From: Bill Moran [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, 20 May 2004 12:14 PM To: Andrew Firestone Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: OpenOffice Install in FreeBSD Andrew Firestone wrote: Anyone have any luck installing OpenOffice-1.1 for FreeBSD 4.9?
