When attempting to save a document using "save as" or "save", the program immediately crashes. I have noticed this only on the latest version of Manjaro Linix.
Which LO version do you use? If you do this: - open a terminal - type export SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gtk - launch LO from the same terminal and try again do you reproduce the crash?
Using version 5.0.2.2. When following your steps, it still crashes and this is what I get in the terminal: [owner@Laptop ~]$ SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gtk [owner@Laptop ~]$ libreoffice writer (soffice:2244): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: gsignal.c:3484: signal name 'selection_changed' is invalid for instance '0x26ff050' of type 'OOoAtkObjCompTxt' (soffice:2244): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_entry_set_text: assertion 'GTK_IS_ENTRY (entry)' failed (soffice:2244): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_entry_set_text: assertion 'GTK_IS_ENTRY (entry)' failed (soffice:2244): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_widget_grab_focus: assertion'GTK_IS_WIDGET (widget)' failed (soffice:2244): Gtk-CRITICAL **: _gtk_file_chooser_entry_set_base_folder: assertion 'GTK_IS_FILE_CHOOSER_ENTRY (chooser_entry)' failed (soffice:2244): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_entry_get_text: assertion 'GTK_IS_ENTRY (entry)' failed (soffice:2244): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_entry_get_text: assertion 'GTK_IS_ENTRY (entry)' failed
you must type: export SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gtk not just: SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gtk without "export", it won't work. If you still reproduce this, would it be possible you retrieve a backtrace? (see https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/BugReport/Debug_Information#GNU.2FLinux:_How_to_get_a_backtrace)
When I typed "export SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gtk" then launched it from the terminal, it worked however, it still crashes when launching LibreOffice normally then trying to save. I tried to get a backtrace log But am comfused about step 4. "a gdbtrace.log file will be created in the same folder." What folder is this talking about?

The folder from where you launched LO I suppose. It's possible this problem is already fixed in 5.0.3. Could you give it a try?
