Isn't that what happens if I:
 - unpack the tar for the installation,
   ( plus the tar for the Dutch langpack,
     and move all the langpack debs to the DEB folder of the install)
 - go to the folder DEB,
   create folder TMPRT there and in that one run
   for i in ./*.deb ; do dpkg-deb -x i$ . ; done
 - and move the whole resulting opt folder to some other place
 - then finaly change bootstraprc for a different userprofile location

(Indeed no system integration.)

I will look what is the latest daily build (that I can find) without the 
problem. Will report later...
