I built the port with Poudriere on a 13.0-CURRENT box. It builts and installs fine. As far as I can say after testing with some types of files, the following works as expected: - opening .odt, .docx, .xlsx - saving the same formats - opening encrypted files - exporting to pdf Using SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=kf5, rendering seems fine for me. Could hardly await the final release of libreoffice and the port :) Best wishes, Rainer
