If you look at the package metadata for hipster, it contains the following:

set name=pkg.fmri
value=pkg://openindiana.org/desktop/office/openoffice@4.1.2,5.11-2016.0.1.0:20180705T215200Z
set name=pkg.obsolete value=true
set name=org.opensolaris.consolidation value=userland

That's it. It's an empty, obsolete package.

If you're after LibreOffice, then a look at

may be of assistance.
