No.
$ dpkg --contents openoffice.org-common_3.1.0-2_all.deb | grep openoffice\/share | grep var
drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2009-05-18 22:49 ./var/lib/openoffice/share/

The error is because the preinst tries to preserve the old file and moving
it to the new location. And does a mkdir instead of mkdir -p when creating
the dict.
BTW: Already reported two times (and fixed since hours as you reported the
bug....)
