I actually do use the DEBs from the LibreOffice website, not my distribution's
package (which is older); and I have not altered the template locations
relative to those.

That's not what the DEBs we bundle do. They put templates in a directory whose
name is LO-version-specific.

So... that's on us.

If we do that, we must arrange it so that a new version notices this fact, and
switches to a directory with a new name (at worst - with a prompt if it can't
decide what to do).
