Well, this reads all the config as it was in the package as all conffiles are gone so your workaround also was gone, of course

As I do, too.

Btw, for you home dir issue, see <https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/190686>, especially the discussion at <https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/190686/comments/90fcd4d9_158418fb>
