At a command prompt run: "$which pstoedit" and note its path, and "cd" to that
directory. Then suppress it by renaming the command, e.g.  $sudo mv pstoedit
pstoedit_keep

The simple change of its name will force it to be avoided, then either
Imagemagick "convert" or ghostscript "gs" will be used and previews/rendering
will be raster rather than vector. The default helpers and file formats have
been tweaked between LO version 4.2 -> 4.4

Rather unlikely. You as a user are responsible for resolving these sorts of
external dependencies. You might solicit your Linux distribution to update and
post more current RPMs for SL 6.6, or even consider moving to SL 7, or
RHEL/Centos 7.
