Really? Uh... Some months ago, I achtually _did_ install
LibreOffice and then found that particular program. Sadly
I didn't make a written note about how it was called and
where it was located, but it was there, if my memory (which
I don't trust) doesn't fail me...

You could try GOffice (the Gnome office suite). If you
need word processing, install AbiWord. For spreadsheets,
there's GNumeric. Those are individual programs.

Or you could try to install OO via package if the port
doesn't build.
