When opening a document, some popups are flashing and then nothing happens:

sven@~/Documents$ libreoffice Sample.ods
sven@~/Documents$

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

Changed in libreoffice (Ubuntu):

This is definitely related to the user profile, deleting it fixes the problem for a day or two.

conferm to swmeier (comment #4)

this was good for me too:

| Deleting my user profile fixed the problem:
|
| mv ~/.config/libreoffice/4/user ~/.config/libreoffice/4/user-old

The error was generated launching libre from root prompt.
After that only root could open libre.
the mv solve problem.

Tks !
