Do you need to use rpm? This produced a runable OOo for me:

$ (cd $TARGET_DIR && for r in $SOURCE_DIR/OOO300_m15_native_packed-1_en-US.9379/RPMS/*.rpm; do rpm2cpio "$r" | cpio -id; done)

This produced three directories in $TARGET_DIR: opt, etc and usr; the actual OOo files are under opt, the rest is jre stuff.

I expect there must be some setup that this skips, but it seems ok with a 30s test.
