This is a Linux specific issue:

 https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=121968

Next time, I will just keep old versions around (if I can) until RC is
announced.  From my personal view, knowing the directory changes, I didn't
think much of having to do a manual de-installation when I couldn't upgrade
so I never even brought it up. I thought  we could/should just deal with in
Release Notes or something. An assessment mistake on my part.
