Ok, here is an outline of steps to take which was recently posted.
I remember having to follow the instructions exactly, when it came to
unpacking them, because some of them got their lower case changed
to upper case, and it gets all messed up.
I didn't write the following, the guys at the end did:

WP8 Install Tips and FAQ For Piecemeal Download
---------------------------------------
A lousy install by corel but an excellent program. Here's a
straightforward approach to installing the program. Reasons follow
after.
1. Make empty directory.
2. Copy all downloaded files GUI0x.GZ to directory as gui0x (small
letters, no extension).
3. Untar gui00 only, (tar -xvf gui00).
4. run ./Runme. When it asked have you unzips and untarred all
programs, answer y for yes.
5. Program will then install.
6. Choose another directory to house program (something like
/usr/local/wp).
7. If you're using magicfilter and ghostscript, choose a postscript
printer like NEC colormate P.S. Then when wordperfect is up and
running, go to print, select and edit the driver. Edit the destination
where Word perfect reads your printcap. Pick either lp, or whatever,
for your lpr options.
8. The executable file will be in "directory/wpbin/xwp." (E.g. run
wordperfect by entering /usr/local/wp/wpbin/xwp & ).
9. Delete your first "empty" (not so empty) directory.
------------------
Explanation, apparently corel got two people working on the install.
(1) The GUI0x.GZ files are in reality tar files. (2) The GUI00.GZ should
be
called install.tar and distributed with a readme that says just
untar that file, it will untar and place in the proper directories
the other tar files. (3) Since unix recognizes upper and lowercase
filenames as different, the files should be lowercase so that Runme
will recognize them (or rewrite runme and move files).
Hope this clarifies things. Any problems, modify this and make sure
it gets in the web.
Special thanks to Shayget or Seth McQuale, Phillip Deackes for their
contributions to the web.
