OOo 2 is a different package to OOo 1 in order to allow both packages
installed at the same time.
If you're short in hd space, just erase one package (rpm -e). It
typically does a better job of erasing the files, than manual attempts
do, and keep your rpm database consistent.
I've no idea, why relocation doesn't work for you, but I also never
tried to do so..
