I don't see the need for a linux portable version, as you can always just
extract the rpms using e.g. 

for i in *.rpm; do rpm2cpio $i |cpio -idmv; done

and then launh LO from the opt/program/libreoffice dir - if you really want
to leave no traces, you pass another  env:UserInstallation parameter or edit
bootstrap.rc in the extracted hierarchy.

so portable version is easy to accomplish - extract, modify the bootstrap.rc
re userprofile and you're done.

Do you think that all users have advanced knowledge of Linux distributions? If
so, this problem would not exist Bug 80941

A user initiates Linux or are migrating from Windows or OS X expects an easy
way to install and update your software. That would help greatly improve the
user experience.

flatpak goes a similar route, by isolating the app agains other stuff, but
is not really what  I'd call portable...

I agree with you, but with a little promotion in the future a Flatpak package
can be installed with a few clicks.
