Your Linux kernel is PAE, surely that is 32bit ? In which case, the crashing is probably due to a kernel bug, you need to change your kernel to one that doesn't crash.

Thank you, Alex
presently I'm doing a work in progress on my computer which is more important for me than LO Base. I'm just afraid to do any radical changes before the work is done. 
And yes my kernal is 32 bit but but it didn't crash the Base for at least one year.

If you read through bug 108619 you will understand that the problem came about because of changes in some *versions* of the 32bit kernel - these kernels were updated by the respective distribution providers (Debian/Ubuntu/etc) and that is what started the crashing in various X apps - note that Libreoffice is not the only application affected here.

The solution is to use whatever mechanism your Linux distribution provides to manage kernel versions, and switch to a kernel that no longer has the problem. Most distros now provide alternative kernel versions that you can use instead of the problematic one.

Yes, I read through the cross-out bug and see that in your opinion Debian 8 is the culprit.
some day when my work-in-progress be over I'll look into kernels closer right now you may as well cross the bug I reported out
