<para><application>LibreOffice</application> is a free software
office suite developed by <application><ulink
url="http://www.documentfoundation.org/">The Document
Foundation</ulink></application> that is compatible with other
major office suites and available on a variety of platforms.
It is a rebranded fork of
<application>OpenOffice.org</application> which includes all of the
mandatory applications in a complete office productivity
suite: a word processor, a spreadsheet, a presentation manager,
a drawing program, a database management program, and a tool for
creating and editing mathematical formula. It is available in a
number of different languages &mdash; internationalization has been
extended to interfaces, spell checkers, and dictionaries.</para>
<para>The word processor of <application>LibreOffice</application>
uses a native XML file format for increased portability and
flexibility. The spreadsheet program features a macro language
and it can be interfaced with external databases.
<application>LibreOffice</application> is already stable
and runs natively on &windows;, Linux, FreeBSD, and
&macos;&nbsp;X. More information about <application>LibreOffice
</application> can be found on the
<ulink url="http://www.libreoffice.org/">LibreOffice web site</ulink>.
</para>
<para>To install <application>LibreOffice</application> as package,
do:</para>
<screen>&prompt.root; <userinput>pkg_add -r libreoffice</userinput></screen>
<note>
<para>When running a -RELEASE version of &os;, this should work.
</note>
<para>Once the package is installed, you need to type the following
command to run <application>LibreOffice</application>:
</para>
<screen>&prompt.user; <userinput>libreoffice</userinput></screen>
<note>
<para>During the first launch, you will be asked some
questions and a <filename>.libreoffice</filename> folder
will be created in your home directory.</para>
</note>
<para>If the <application>LibreOffice</application> packages
are not available, you still have the option to compile the
port. However, you must bear in mind that it requires a lot of
disk space and a fairly long time to compile.</para>
<screen>&prompt.root; <userinput>cd /usr/ports/editors/libreoffice</userinput>
&prompt.root; <userinput>make install clean</userinput></screen>
<note>
<para>If you want to build a localized version, replace the
previous command line with the following:</para>
<screen>&prompt.root; <userinput>make LOCALIZED_LANG=<replaceable>your_language</replaceable> install clean</userinput></screen>
<para>You have to replace
<replaceable>your_language</replaceable> with the correct
language ISO-code. A list of supported language codes are
available in the <maketarget>pre-fetch</maketarget> target of
the port <filename>Makefile</filename>.
</para>
</note>
<para>Once this is done,
<application>LibreOffice</application> can be launched with
the command:</para>
<screen>&prompt.user; <userinput>libreoffice</userinput></screen>
