The gtk3 VS gtk2 thing is a red herring. When run with --backtrace, the
logs show that libreoffice crashes while trying to instantiate a JVM
(which it probably doesn't do with the gtk2 plugin). This is a known
issue, see bug #1699772. So another way of working around the issue
would be to uninstall libreoffice-java-common. Or to simply run the
following command in a terminal:
sed -i '/enabled/c\<enabled xsi:nil="false">false<\/enabled>'
~/.config/libreoffice/4/user/config/javasettings_Linux_*.xml
Some functions of libreoffice won't work without Java (the most visible
probably being libreoffice base), but most of the office suite should
work just fine.
