I think this is an extension or at least related to the bug report mentioned in the release notes as that’s where the proposed fix came from. It was a wild guess on my part.

No, I think you’re kind of right. The bug report at least should be edited to include a larger scope. Feel free!

Thank you, now it works. But now I get the following screen everytime I try to open LibreOffice (and not open the odt through PCMan):
It doesn’t matter if I close the message or press “OK” - it reappears every single time and doesn’t open.
It says that LibreOffice has crashed and tries to restore the following documents - well, none.
Yes, that’s the downside of changing thr env variable, you cannot run office alone. You need to run an app (writer, calc, etc…)
Maybe @scro problem is that he edited writer .desktop but he opened lo with other .desktop?
@kc2bez there is another way like this: https://www.linuxuprising.com/2018/04/gksu-removed-from-ubuntu-heres.html

There’s a new version of Libreoffice (6.4.3) which should fix the bug. If I use the shell with sudo apt-get install libreoffice it says that I already have the newest version (6.4.2). If I try to download 6.4.3 through discover, it always dies at 7% though. It doesn’t find the 6.4.3 version in “software”.
Is there a reason why that version isn’t referenced yet?
Ok, download with discover works, just takes forever.
That’s because it’s not a Debian package, but a Snap package.
Hi, @scro
I am no expert at all. Just I also had this problem. The solution provided by @wxl worked smoothly for a while and suddenly, out of the blue, it stopped exporting PDF. Then I found this solution in Ask LibreOffice and now I am back on the road! It can help you momentarily until we figure out what is really happening.
My suspect is LibreOffice.
Yes, that works! Thank you very much!
That works because you removed libreoffice-qt so you have gtk or default vcl
