If you run a -RELEASE the "remote package" exists. It should be more
interesting to keep the current text and add a note to point people (and
persons using something else than -RELEASE) on
http://porting.openoffice.org/freebsd/ for up to date packages. No need
to give the pkg_add(8) command line since the reader should be able to
adapt the previous example and since the package name may vary a lot
(look at
http://oootranslation.services.openoffice.org/pub/OpenOffice.org/ooomisc/FreeBSD/).
