Tar command and OpenOffice 1.1 question

[Stephen Liu]

Hi Jerry,

Tks for your 2 emails and detail advice.

>   cp openoffice-1.1.0_1.tbz /usr/local/.
>   cd /usr/local
>   pkg_add openoffice-1.1.0_1.tbz
> replace instances of {BASE} with /usr/local if needed
>   /usr/local/OpenOffice-1.1.0_1/program/soffice       to set up

Proceeded as follows;

# cp /home/user/Download/openoffice-1.1.0_1  /usr/local/
# cd /usr/local/
# pkg_add openoffice-1.1.0_1.tbz
pkg_add: could not find package glib-1.2.10_10 !
pkg_add: could not find package gtk-1.2.10_10 !
pkg_add: could not find package ORBit-0.5.17 !

# cd /usr/ports/
# make search key=glib-1.2.10_10 | grep glib-1.2.10_10
# make search key=gtk-1.2.10_10 | grep gtk-1.2.10_10
# make search key=ORBit-0.5.17 | grep ORBit-0.5.17

Could not find them.

Finally I untar  'openoffice-1.1.0_1.tbz'  and then ran './setup'
Now OpenOffice-1.1 is running on FBSD

But I am still interested to learn the FBSD way of installing OpenOffice-1.1.  
Where can I find those dependencies?

TIA

B.R.
Stephen
