3) What is expected to happen in Writer is <PRECISE, STEP-BY-STEP
INSTRUCTIONS TO REPRODUCE ONE PROBLEM>.

Start libreoffice writer from:
- Desktop menu: Office => Libre Office Writer
- Filetype association: /.../anyfile.odf or /.../anyfile.doc
- from Libre suite => Libre Office Writer

The libreoffice writer initial dialog is displayed. 
After the dialog indicates "100% complete", the dialog closes. 
Then, the writer application opens a blank document or the selected document.

4) What happened instead is...

(All in step 3 above until: After the dialog indicates "100% complete", the 
dialog closes).
 
But, the writer crashes or fails to start.
The writer does not open.
There are no error messages or dialogs displayed.

The problem does not occur with the other libreoffice applications
(suite, base, calc, impress, math).
