In the /opt/openoffice.org1.9.122/program/ directory there are still two files remaining:

And they're flashing red, which I've never seen before. It's very ominous looking.
In a stock Red Hat-esque setup, the flashing red indicates a dangling symlink. Try this:
cd /var/tmp touch zzz ln -s zzz yyy rm zzz ls
The yyy link should appear in blinking red because the file to which it points, zzz, is no longer available. You can delete dangling links without danger.
