First: Is your ports tree fresh? (i.e. did you cvsup?)

I'm not sure it works with 2.2.7, but you're *probably* OK.

and put it in /usr/ports/distfiles? And make sure it's still gzipped,
and end with GZ in capital letters. This iw what the port expects.

You should use pkg_add to add this kit kit. Did you?

Should be ok, I guess.

Could you please specify, preferrably by using the script command, or
cut 'n paste, exactly what happens? This would help us help you.

One thing you could try is cd into /usr/ports/editors/worperfect, make
clean before make all. This might (but probably won't) help.

So, please supply more info and we will be more able to help.
