I have compiled & installed both on amd64. The binaries do not conflict (see below), Both start OK announcing right version numbers. But I'm not a serious user & no idea if all libs & other includes etc are carefully segregated. cat /usr/ports/editors/openoffice.org-3/pkg-plist # Dummy file, do not delete. Package list is generated automatically. So look in makefile, or if you request, I could private mail you my /var/db/pkg/ openoffice.org-2.4.2 & openoffice.org-3.0.0 so you could check segregation. 7.1-BETA2 p0 jhs 81 john/usr/local/bin % echo openo* openoffice openoffice.org-2.4.2 openoffice.org-2.4.2-sbase openoffice.org-2.4.2-scalc openoffice.org-2.4.2-sdraw openoffice.org-2.4.2-setofficelang openoffice.org-2.4.2-simpress openoffice.org-2.4.2-smath openoffice.org-2.4.2-spadmin openoffice.org-2.4.2-swriter openoffice.org-3.0.0 openoffice.org-3.0.0-sbase openoffice.org-3.0.0-scalc openoffice.org-3.0.0-sdraw openoffice.org-3.0.0-setofficelang openoffice.org-3.0.0-simpress openoffice.org-3.0.0-smath openoffice.org-3.0.0-spadmin openoffice.org-3.0.0-swriter > Also, importing spellcheck dictionaries into either version results in "bad > tranfer url". Is there a solution to this? Don't know, have just compiled & installed both, hardly use oo at present, except to export .doc to .pdf.
