Ubuntu – Libreoffice doesnt work since update to ubuntu 15.04

libreoffice

The update to Ubuntu 15.04 causes following problem. When I try to open LibreOffice the screen goes black and then shows following message for a few seconds:

starting version 219
[   OK    ] Started Light Display Manager.
            Starting WPA supplicant...
                                      [   OK   ] Started WPA supplicant.

Then the screen turns black again and Ubuntu restarts. All other programs work as usual. Any idea what causes this and how I can solve it?

Best Answer

A possible way to solve this is to update the source from which the Libreoffice update is triggered. To automatically get the latest stable Libreoffice, you may need to add the following repository:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:libreoffice/ppa 
sudo apt-get update sudo
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

Cheers,
