Duplicate page settings in Sidebar

The Properties deck of the Sidebar currently has two areas for setting properties for the Page in the Sidebar. One of these should be eliminated.
See attached image.

I could see that but the issue disappeared after I reset my user profile.
You can do that by using Help > Restart in Safe Mode and using both options in "Reset to factory settings". (But keep in mind that you will lose any user customisation.)

However, it would be interesting to find steps that would make the issue reappear.
Do you know how it started?
Please also paste here the information copied from Help > About LibreOffice.

I restarted in Safe Mode which eliminated the duplicate page settings. I don't know when or what happen to cause the duplicate.

I've attached an image of my About LibreOffice screen.

I haven't seen the issue again. Let's close as "works for me" for now, we can set to "new" if someone can find steps to reproduce. Still categorising as a profile issue. (Could be related to the reuse of the profile after an upgrade.)
