Log out, log in as root (or su from another user) and see if /var/run/user/1000 exists. Rename it to something else in case you need the contents, and then see if libreoffice works. If everything seems okay, get rid of the old version (My system has multiple users, I'm the only person logged in, and folder 1000 (my user-id) is the only one there. I guess somehow some old file has got "stuck" and needs deleting.) Cheers, Wol
