Broke down and built the port, which took about 24 hours (after I found & installed all dependent packages [built dependencies for a couple days before that]), but it went well and functions. I'd really like to skip doing that on my other system, however. So, is there a standard description of what files, folders, etc, make up a package, other than the makefile, such that I can copy openoffice to my other machine(s)? For that matter, is there a standardized way to build a pkg from a port, or is that entirely up to the port maintainer? See where I'm headed? Or am I hopelessly naive? Steve
