terminate called after throwing an instance of 'com::sun::star::deployment::DeploymentException'

[Kevin Suo]

I have been suffering the DeploymentException discussed below for a long 
time. Good news is that, this seems now have been fixed by:


commit 8c6467a785037309d2a2cec56c8e38cf52da0aee
Author: Mike Kaganski <mike.kaganski at collabora.com>
Date:   Sat Oct 29 23:38:12 2022 +0300

     MSI: fix handling empty directories


Thanks Mike Kaganski! Your fix is not only limited to MSI, but also DEB 
and RPM packages on Linux! And I see you submitted some other fixes to 
the solenv/bin/modules/ installer codes.


I am wondering whether you can backport this commit to libreoffice-7-4 
as well, since the problem below also exists on 7.4 branch.

Dear devs:

I have compiled from souce code using the following autogen.input 
parameters:

--without-help
--without-helppack-integration
--with-lang=zh-CN zh-TW

--disable-online-update
--disable-breakpad
--disable-odk
--without-doxygen

--enable-epm
--with-package-format=rpm

--with-external-tar=/mnt/data/suokunlong/lo/external_tarballs
--without-java
--enable-firebird-sdbc
--without-system-firebird
--enable-python=internal

The build succeeded.  I can run the application from within the 
<build-source>/instdir without any problem:

$ ./instdir/program/soffice

However, if I install the RPMs:

$ sudo dnf install 
./workdir/installation/LibreOfficeDev/rpm/install/LibreOfficeDev_7.3.7.0.0_Linux_x86-64_rpm/RPMS/*.rpm

and then run the installed application, I got the following error:

$ /opt/libreofficedev7.3/program/soffice.bin
terminate called after throwing an instance of 
'com::sun::star::deployment::DeploymentException'
Unspecified Application Error

The same happens on both Ubuntu 22.04 and Fedora 36, also on the 7.4 
branch. I remember I did install the rpms from my own build years ago 
and this issue did not happen. Not sure why it fails now. Am I missing 
something?

Thank you in advance.
