Hi,

Sadly :-( this didn't work.

I've been digging around a bit more and found some strange things happen
with soffice when /usr/local is on a different disk to /usr - mine is, and
/usr/ports is on another one altogether! Could this be it? What can I do
about it - apart from moving everything around?

Openoffice would be a possible, but the port looks broken at the moment.
Ugh.

Any suggestions?

From,

Tim
