No.

Download it from Sun or get a CDROM (there are still freebies floating
around in the right places, or pay a small media charge for it).  Follow
the *net* installation instructions, not the "standard" install (fscking
brain-dead fscking default). 

You're going to want to run, as root:

    $ install /net

...and specify an installation location (I use /opt/SOffice52, which
maps to /usr/local/SOffice52).  If you chose the standard installation,
you have to do a full StarOffice, that bloated stuck pig of an office
suite, install for each user.  As I said, fscking brain dead.
