I want to install a LibreOffice extension for all users on my computer.
(Ubuntu 16.04, LibreOffice 5.1)

I click on the extension, select "Install for all users" and "Install for current user". Installation works only for current user. It does not even ask for administrator's password.



I also tried to install with command



$ sudo unopkg add --shared <extension.oxt>


At first it asked to delete lock file ~/.config/libreoffice/4/.lock
After removing this file it said



ERROR: [context="user"] caught unexpected com.sun.star.ucb.InteractiveAugmentedIOException: an error occurred during file opening

unopkg failed.


Then I tried to install it as a root:



$ sudo -s
# lowriter


Opened an Extension Manager in LibreOffice and received an empty window with a Fatal Error.



Is there a way to install an extension for all users?

          It seems that this problem is a known bug 100307.

          This bug has been reported almost two years ago. Nobody is working on it :(
