installing Microsoft Office for OS X from office.com

• https://portal.office.com/OLS/MySoftware.aspx

Double-clicking on the “.pkg” (1.6GB) resulted in a window that popped up saying this:

Verifying “Microsoft_Office_2016_15.35.17061000_Installer.pkg”…

This “never” ended in my case. And I waited for more than 30 minutes. And I tried more than once. Then I turned to “Microsoft Office Online”.
