3) What you expected to happen
Start any libreoffice (verified at least with writer, calc, and impress) from:
- Desktop menu: Office -> LibreOffice Writer/Calc/Impress
- Filetype association: .../anyfile.odf
The libreoffice splash screen is displayed. After the dialog indicates
"100% complete", the dialog closes and the writer opens a blank
document or the selected document.
4) What happened instead
The application crashes immediately after the initial splash screen,
and shows the "Document Recovery" dialog: "Due to an unexpected error
LibreOffice crashed...". Trying to start the application again shows
the "Document Recovery" dialog again, with "LibreOffice will attempt
to recover the state of the files" and showing "Untitled 1" in the
list of documents to be recovered. There is no "Discard" button, and
pressing "OK" results in an endless loop with recovery dialogs. The
only way to get out is to kill the window in the titlebar.
This only happens with libreoffice-gnome + libreoffice-gtk3 or
libreoffice-gtk + libreoffice-gtk2 installed. Removing those packages
and starting e.g. writer again shows the document recovery dialog but
now with a "Discard" button. Pressing that button discards the
"Untitled 1" document and libreoffice starts normally.
I don't think it is related to Bug #1777518 since libreoffice-java-
common is not installed. I've also disabled Java in Options ->
Advanced -> Use a Java runtime environment.
WORKAROUND: Remove libreoffice-gnome + libreoffice-gtk3 or
libreoffice-gtk + libreoffice-gtk2
