Hello Cor
In a similar situation, under RPM package manager I had to do the
following to achieve what you want
1) define a new package database (to isolate our sandbox from serious
things)
2) intall in a new package place e.g. /home/me/libreoffice
perhaps you could try the following in dpkg
--admindir=dir
Change default administrative directory, which contains
many files that give information about status of installed
or uninstalled packages, etc. (Defaults to /var/lib/dpkg)
--instdir=dir
Change default installation directory which refers to
the directory where packages are to be installed. instdir is
also the directory passed to chroot(2) before running
package's installation scripts, which means that the scripts
see instdir as a root directory. (Defaults to /)
--root=dir
Changing root changes instdir to dir and admindir to
dir/var/lib/dpkg.
Regards
Olivier

Hi Jean-Baptiste,
Thanks for replying. (And sorry for my initial post - too many typos and
wrong wordings, as I see it now - I should be more awake when writing
:-\ )
Maybe that is a fundamental Linux misbehaviour of mine, that I run
dpkg-deb and replace the whole opt folder afterwards?
