See https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/UserProfile: For GNU/Linux users: /home/<user name>/.config/libreoffice/4/user (LibreOffice 4) /home/<user name>/.config/libreoffice/3/user (LibreOffice 3 since 3.5.0) /home/<user name>/.libreoffice/3/user (prior to LibreOffice 3.5.0) And indeed, I see UserInstallation=$SYSUSERCONFIG/libreoffice/4 where SYSUSERCONFIG *is* /home/rene/.config here. And I see static const char XDG_CONFIG_PART[] = "/.config"; in the LO 3.5.4 code, followed by: const char* pXDGCfgHome = getenv("XDG_CONFIG_HOME"); // cater for XDG_CONFIG_HOME change // If XDG_CONFIG_HOME is set then we; // assume the user knows what they are doing ( room for improvement here, we could // of course search the default config dir etc. also - but this is more complex, // we would need to weigh results from the current config dir against matches in // the 'old' config dir etc. ) - currently we just use the returned config dir. // If XDG_CONFIG_HOME is NOT set; // assume then we should now using the default $HOME/,config config location for // our user profiles, however *all* previous libreoffice and openoffice.org [...] so this should not happen(tm)...
