libreoffice crashes since installation of the new intel opencl driver stack

[gipsy100]

I successfully installed the new intel opencl driver stack (checked with clinfo and everything looks fine).

I can use darktable with activated opencl without problems, but whenever I open an existing document in libreoffice or save a new one it crashes with the message "Couldn't open /usr/share/kde4/config/kdebug.areas". I searched the internet and found some information on problems with opencl and libreoffice, but not connected to the new driver stack.

Deactivating opencl in libreoffice and deleting the user profile makes no difference. Uninstalling opencl unfortunately doesn't help either, libreoffice still crashes, even as root. My system hasn't changed recently apart from the installation of opencl.

system:
ubuntu 17.10, kernel 4.13.0-36, kaby lake i5-7300HQ, Intel HD Graphics 630
libreoffice 5.4.5.1

Has someone already tried the opencl stack with ubuntu and libreoffice and faced the same problem? What can I do to resolve the issue?

output of clinfo:
