That's interesting indeed.

Bingo! ;o))

That one worked.
Renamed the recent profile in .config/libreoffice/4 and voila
Libreoffice went back to service.
Had to reinstall all the extensions and copy
.config/libreoffice/4/user/registrymodifications.xcu from the old profile to
the newly created one, to restore recent documents and data bases.

Asked for bug closure..

Thanks for Your help.
