I am having the same issue.  File --> Exit does not work.  Alt-F4, Ctrl-Q, 
and clicking on the X work.  File --> close successfully closes the app 
(calc, writer, impress, etc.) but I am unable to exit LibreOffice with 
file --> Exit LibreOffice in any screen.  Here's the output of
Help --> About:
