Hmm, i just thought. maybe this guide might help you change the path on your
machine

Just miss out the bits where it installs another version of LibreOffice!
Something else i liked about the Arch install was the inclusion of OpenJdk6 and
mozilla-common. IOpenJdk7 has only come out in the last few days so it's a bit too
recent to use. You might not need the java runtime at all. I have started unticking it
on the various works machines to help LO start-up faster and had no problems so far.
It's good to have the OpenSource version available as a fall-back in case you do need
java tho even if it is still owned by Oracle. I think for most distros the
package/add-on to allow documents to open in a web-browser is called
"mozilla-libreoffice" and we would never guess it's different in Arch so it's
good to have that included as standard. Both very small packages and including them
neatly side-steps a range of potential troubles :)
The . in the front of the fodler-name only makes the folder hidden. It doesn't
really make all that much difference except that you have to remember it when
typing out the pathname of course.

I know it only makes it hidden. I'm seeing more now.
/etc/libreoffice/bootstraprc contains the line:
UserInstallation=$SYSUSERCONFIG/.libreoffice/3
now I need to figure out where that $SYSUSERCONFIG comes from.

Err, sorry, which platform are you on? Is that Bsd? It's not the path used in
Gnu&Linux and i dont remember it looking like that in Windows either although i
could easily have missed that.

Tom :)
My platform is Linux. Distribution is Arch. The build instructions are here:
http://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit/packages.git/tree/trunk/PKGBUILD?h=packages/libreoffice
I don't see anything specifying the user config dir, so I assume what I have is
the default.

Why is the default config located at ~/.config/.libreoffice?
I appreciate it being under .config so as not to add to the clutter of my home directory,
but is the "." necessary? It's already in .config!
~/.config/libreoffice would do just fine.
