Bug Description

Since the LibreOffice update to 5.4.5-0ubuntu0.17.10.1, PDF export (either via the toolbar button, or via File->Export as PDF...) crashes reproducibly in at least Impress, Writer and Calc.

Upstream seems to be aware of this issue:
https://ask.libreoffice.org/en/question/146959/libreoffice-always-crashes-on-ubuntu-during-pdf-export/
However, I'm unsure whether a fix has already been released.

I can confirm this bug at least for one of my machines. LO Impress, Writ and Calc crash immediately when I click on "Export as PDF".

However, my other machine is not effected by this bug. It uses the same LO version.
