I have about 20+ versions - time to delete some, but then still, I have
many versions in parallel. Just to be able to check in various versions
of 3.3.x of 3.4.x of my own build, of daily builds..
Besides, I some 8 older OOo versions.

Heh - so, I'd be inclined to recommend installing the packages, and
then moving the results away to somewhere else - that may turn out to be
rather more reliable [but will break system integration no doubt].

Isn't that what happens if I:
- unpack the tar for the installation,
( plus the tar for the Dutch langpack,
and move all the langpack debs to the DEB folder of the install)
- go to the folder DEB,
create folder TMPRT there and in that one run
for i in ./*.deb ; do dpkg-deb -x i$ . ; done
- and move the whole resulting opt folder to some other place
- then finaly change bootstraprc for a different userprofile location

(Indeed no system integration.)

1. there used to be a user-install script which could install the RPMs as created in instsetoo_native not in the system, but in some path given as parameter (even on Debian), and patch it to use a user installation also in that directory; have used that a lot until last year or so...

2. it is possible to build a tarball installation set that can be unpacked anywhere and also uses its own user installation; no system integration of course.
   configure --with-package-format=archive

of course i have no idea what our tinderboxes do currently, but perhaps you find this useful...
