OK, I guess I'm stupid or I got lost in all those words, but I still
don't see where it says *WHEN* to intall the LibO-URE file: *before* or
*after* the main LibO file.

$ cd /home/<user>/<pathto>/LibO_3.4.0beta5_Linux_x86_install-deb_en-US/DEBS
$ sudo dpkg -i *.deb

$ cd /home//<user>/<pathto>/LibO_3.4.0beta5_Linux_x86_install-deb_en-US/DEBS
$ sudo dpkg -i *.deb

So where does the LibO-URE file come in? The lines above look identical
to me, other than two // after home in the second line vs one / in the
first line.
My mistake (copy & paste):
$ cd /home/<user>/<pathto>/LibO_3.4.0beta5_Linux_x86_install-deb_en-US/DEBS

Somewhere along the line you've followed the instructions to download
the LO tar.gz right?

If 32bit then:
LibO_3.4.0beta5_Linux_x86_install-deb_en-US.tar.gz
if 64bit then:
LibO_3.4.0beta5_Linux_x86-64_install-deb_en-US.tar.gz

Extract whatever version you've downloaded by '$ tar xvzf <LOfile>.gz
That will create a /LibO_3.4.0beta5_Linux_x86_install-deb_en-US folder
in your home directory:

/home/<yourusername>//LibO_3.4.0beta5_Linux_x86_install-deb_en-US

Within that folder is the subfolder 'DEB' - that's the folder where all
the .deb files are located. Open a terminal:
Applications|Accessories|Terminal - once opened, cd to the
/home/<yourusername>//LibO_3.4.0beta5_Linux_x86_install-deb_en-US/DEBS
folder:

$ cd /home/<yourusername>//LibO_3.4.0beta5_Linux_x86_install-deb_en-US/DEBS

Once there:

$ sudo dpkg -i *.deb

Note: that will install all the *dict files included (every language
that LO decided to try). If you'd like to cut down on the install, you
can first remove the *dict files that you don't need... like:
libobasis3.4-dict-vi_3.4.0-5_i386.deb
before doing 'sudo dpkg -i *.deb


You're still not answering my initial question, which is: What the heck
do I do, if anything, with this file, which is one of the FOUR files
provided on the download page for pre-release versions of LibO:
LibO-URE_3.4rc1_Linux_x86_install-deb_en-US.tar.gz 

All I want to know is whether to install that FIRST, or after the
regular LibO install file (the one you've mentioned here), or do I not
need to install the LibO-URE file at all?

I'm getting these files from this page:
