Hi Gordon,

as you can see, installation already breaks with PostgreSQL, so it doesn't 
even get to installing KOffice because FreeBSD installs all dependencies 
first (PostgreSQL being one of them for Kexi).

Without trying to manually fix this, I would suggest to install a recent 
version of FreeBSD, like the new 6.0 release. The 5.2 version is also 
"officially" considered unstable (5.3 and 5.4 are production releases).

Question: Are you using an up-to-date ports tree? If not it might also be an 
option to download the latest ports tree from 
http://www.freebsd.org/ports/index.html
(look for "Current Status") or use CVSUP (if you don't know cvsup, forget 
about it).

But still, as 5.2 is considered unstable anyway (to some extend it probably 
is) I would recommend upgrading if you can't get things to work.

The 6.0 release also contains lots of precompiled KDE packages (on disc 2). I 
don't know though whether KOffice is also available on it. Still, if you have 
most of KDE already there, installing KOffice from ports should work just 
fine.

Hope that helps, good luck,
Raphael
