I've just discovered that
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/packages/All/ has a package
openoffice.org-2.3.1_1.tbz, however what version of FreeBSD is this for (I'm
on 1386 7.0-RELEASE? am I going to have to recompile for version 2.4?
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-7.0-release/All still
has no openoffice. If the one in ports/packages/All is correct then why
can't portupgrade -NPP and pkg_add -r not find it?
