LibreOffice.app never finishes verifying

On Macbook Air OS 10.10.5

On first running after download I get a progress bar that says “Verifying LibreOffice.app”… The progress indicator reaches the end but the bar never closes. The LibreOffice icon appears in the Dock, but is unresponsive.

Possibly was related to needing Java to be installed. I have it working now, though have just started investigating the program.
