I don't want or need all of the programs in the libreoffice suite.
In fact, the only reason I might install it is to get the presentation
program so I can work with PowerPoint files I occasionally download from
the web. (There don't seem to be any workable, lighterweight
alternatives, as there are for .doc and .xls files.)
Would it be possible to provide some options to select which components
to install? Or is the suite written in such a way that I have to
install the whole thing in order to get one piece?
As often happens, asking the question got me thinking and I went to
FreshPorts to see if I could find some alternatives to Impress that I
didn't know about. Found devel/present, which looks promising. Poking
around in the workdir, I see there's a gtk-based ppt viewer included.
But I'd still like to know if it's possible to install only a few
selected components from libreoffice, for the cases where I might need
to do more than view an MSOffice file.
