I already did - just because I don't want to compile OOo. Building OOo-2 on a PIII/1,13 isn't very funny. :-). OOo-1.1 was a little nightmare, especially because it took me a while to succeed - you'd surely find on google ;-). Last but not least, I don't have 9 free GBs. Really. :-) I just don't understand why the package I mentioned requires openssl, because I can't see any dependency on openssl, neither for building nor for running. A third way would be to use the ports openssl-beta as systems default? Ben > > -Mike > >
