The cause is likely the LXPanel only. You could search for the thread:
Re: [PM] lxpanel keeps crashing with Libre Office, on the lxde mailing
archive list. There is a workaround (but it is not very productive).

Or: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=803098 for information.

LXDE panel has currently no maintainer and I was collecting all the
bugs on this particular notebook, among which: LO, ibus, Firefox icons
were making the panel freeze.

I have installed xfce-panel, at last. And everything works fine now.
