All You need is to remove (or just rename) an existing ${HOME}/.OpenOffice* directory.
Afer 'pkg_add openoffice-1.1RC4.tgz' and 'touch ${HOME}/.OpenOffice.org1.1.0/user/config/soffice.cfg'
You must run  'openoffice-1.1' as user and answer number of questions.
One of the questions is an installation type - choose the network variant of installation
instead of workstation one. Otherwise OpenOffice will install itself into your home directory
(~200MB) instead of setting up configuration files only.
