Note: Just did test of adding the 7.5x release of LibreOffice.
I downloaded both the Help and Program Files from site (no a repo)
2311462 Feb 3 22:29
LibreOffice_7.5.0_Linux_x86-64_rpm_helppack_en-US.tar.gz
228973591 Feb 3 22:52 LibreOffice_7.5.0_Linux_x86-64_rpm.tar.gz
Then used my script passing the new release part
(Note if newer version of same base it does an upgrade of the previous one)
Say going from 7.4.2 to 7.4.3, but since this is a new base it created a 7.5
version.
which libreoffice libreoffice7.4 libreoffice7.5
/usr/bin/libreoffice
/usr/bin/libreoffice7.4
/usr/bin/libreoffice7.5
So my menu currently has 3 versions of Libreoffice (Fedora 36)
libreoffice writer 7.3.7.2
libreoffice 7.4 writer 7.4.4.2
libreoffice 7.5 writer 7.5.0.3
To remove a version installed from libreoffice site run the rpm command.
Since each base version is separate with Fedora the can be exist. Don't know if
true on other
versions. So, currently have 3 versions installed.
Long output of the script process.

Again, if libreoffice come out with update like 7.5.04 the
process would update the 7.5 version rather than install
another version.
My newlibre script, but may not work for others, so
please check
newlib=$(ls -1 LibreOffice_$1*.gz |tail -n 1 | cut -f1,2 -d_)
mkdir $newlib
cd $newlib/
for a in ../$newlib*.gz ; do tar xvf $a ; done
for a in $(find . | grep "\.rpm") ; do mv $a .; done
rpm -Uvh *.rpm
tar -Jcvf ../$newlib.xz *.rpm
rm l*.rpm -f
rm LibreOffice_$1* -R -f
cd ..
rmdir $newlib
