Thanks for your work on OpenOffice. Two quick questions:

First, I'm confused by some language in pkg-message:

    OpenOffice has now been installed in ${PREFIX}/OpenOffice.org1.0/

    Once that is done exit X11 and run it again as the user
    that you usually use. Then run "make install-user" and do
    a standard workstation Thereafter, OpenOffice can be started using the
    ${PREFIX}/bin/soffice command.

In "Once that is done," I can't figure out what "that" refers back to. 
 It seems to be a vestage from rev 1.4 of the file referring to the 
network install that's automatically done by make install.

Along the same lines, in "run it again," I can't figure out what "it" 
refers back to.

Is the the correct sequence:

As root:
make install (does network install)
As user:
quit X
make install-user
start X
run ${PREFXI}/bin/soffice

If it'd help, I'll offer to submit a revised version of pkg-message that 
makes this more clear after I understand the process well enough to 
complete it myself.

Second, Is there a way for me to build my own package of OO? I tried 
just make package, but it just tells me that it's already installed. The 
two-phase install seems to get in the way of make package.

    Thanks,

    Bob
