I'd go for a command line only instructions, as people don't necessarily
know that nautilus is the file manager or use gnome...

And the desktop-integration subdirectory is no more. There's only the
freedesktop-menus rpm (and the Debian one for the Debs)

Shorter is better. Strip the how to download stuff..

* open terminal
* extract the downloaded tar balls (tar -xf filename) (all at once)
* install RPMs. Just use plain rpm, no need to use system specific tool as
there are no dependencies that need to be resolved:
rpm -Uhv LibreOffice*/RPMS/*.rpm

Done.
Replace the last line with the corresponding deb command.

Ciao
Christian
