This is not the way the original OOo did work this were modified packages of 
OOo.

Your distribution probably will continue to use a similar scheme.

I ask you: why?
Why should the user be bothered with this?

The place the sysadmin would have a look was mentioned by regina.

The point in rpm installations is the non-interactiveness of the install, so
there won't be a prompt that asks you for the installation directory.

You can use the --prefix switch to tell rpm where it should put OOo (instead of
/opt/ooo<version>). You can modify bootstraprc to adjust the user's config.

The --prefix switch is documented in the installation guide, the bootstrap-thing
is hardly of any use to the casual user, but if you insist on having this
documented as well, please add a comment to issue 37513

So basically this issue is against the wrong component. Installation itself
already allows for different prefixes. Asking the user where she wants the
user-configuration files is a wontfix. The user-installation step is gone.

closing worksforme.
