I had to find the 3 files on the web called:

so-5_2-ga-bin-linux-en.bin 
soa-5_2-ga-bin-linux-en.bin 
sop-5_2-ga-bin-linux-en.bin 

and put them in /usr/ports/distfiles/staroffice52/

and do the install. I have the files here but they are too large to
ship to from where I'm at and I can't seem to find where I located
them at.
