I am running FBSD 3.4R.
I have just installed the star office package via:

#  pkg_add staroffice-3.1.tgz 

This returns the message:

WARNING:  In order for this package to work correctly, the following
          steps _must_ be taken :
  - The Linux libc in /compat/linux must be upgraded to 5.4.4 or later.
    This can be achieved by installing version 2.4 or later of the
    linux_lib port, or by fetching a later version manually.
  - The Linux 'ldconfig' program must be run to update the library
    cache details for Linux programs.

NOTE:  Do not follow the installation instructions included with the
       StarOffice distribution, as these are not required.  The first
       time a user runs a StarOffice application, the installation
       program will be run, which will establish their personal
       configuration.

My question is, what is this really saying and what is the easiest way to
do it? 

In /compat/linux/lib I have

root     wheel     3070220 Oct 13  1998 libc-2.0.7.so*
root     wheel          13 May  2 18:43 libc.so.6 ->libc-2.0.7.so*

Is the warning saying that I need to install linux_base-5.4.4.tgz to get
libc-2.4.so? If so, where do I get the linux_base. Or can I just find a
copy of libc-2.4.so and copy it to /compat/linux/lib ?

Thanks
