That's interesting indeed.

Bingo! ;o))

That one worked.
Renamed the recent profile in .config/libreoffice/4 and voila
Libreoffice went back to service.
Had to reinstall all the extensions and copy
.config/libreoffice/4/user/registrymodifications.xcu from the old profile to
the newly created one, to restore recent documents and data bases.

Asked for bug closure..

Thanks for Your help.

Hi Friedrich,

If you look at /bin/libreoffice you'll see it's a shell script and
provides options like `--strace' and `--backtrace' that may give better
diagnostics that what you have so far.

It looks like the problem happens in an area to do with user profiles.
Have you tried starting it as an entirely new user that has never run it
before?

This is, what I did already..

I'm on xfce so Qt5/KDE5 issues should not matter..

Thanks for Your attention.

Try upgrading to 6.2.0-3.
The changelog says that this build has Qt5/KDE5 support compiled in,
which 6.2.0-2 seems to have omitted for some reason. That is if you're
environment is a Qt5/KDE5 one.

Only to open a terminal and strace the startup, e.g.

 $ strace soffice

or try stating writer or calc directly

 $ lowriter

or

 $ localc

and if they fail, strace them both as well. You can add that information to
the bug report.

6.1.5.2 still works, but looks rather hideous built with gtk3. The toolbars
take up about 150% the vertical space compared to the same builds with gtk2.
That's with the Adwaita theme. Looks like the font and font size input are
really tall in comparison.
