Why not set this in > the port, perhaps in PORTREVISION? Hello, I am curious about this too. OpenOffice.org seems to personify all the reasons one would want to install using packages vs. building the port, especially on older hardware. Why is the OpenOffice.org package treated so differently? How do people install and manage the packages provided at http://porting.openoffice.org/freebsd/ ? Thank you, Richard
