right, depends on a /usr/bin/soffice to reach the installation location

it would work if:

1) /usr/bin/soffice is symlinked to <libo install dir>/program/soffice ; 
and:

2) the user does not install OOo Vanilla at the same time.

In case 2) the LibO tooling will point to OOo installation path instead.

I opened a bug:

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=31229

where I tried to explain how this should work.
But I'm not sure I described it clearly.
