Same here now. but post-install also needs some work.

Glad to see we may be on time for the official 3.4.2 release :)

I proposed the following policy for libreoffice release: always keep 
only one ports in the port tree: the officially entrerpise ready version 
from upstream? which mean currently 3.3.3 and as soon as the 
announcement is made, 3.4.2 will become the official enterprise so we 
will switch at the same time.

opinions ?
