You yourself once? lo_kde5filepicker is the current workaround for
getting a KDE5 native filepicker in LO. It does interprorcess
communication..

.. so if there is no LO anymore it probably tries to communicate with a
LO which isn't there anymore?

But it was once and you opened/saved files?

Which doesn't say anything.

Or just kill those processes if no LO is running? (btw, looking for LO
is better done with soffice.bin, not libreoffice)
