Description Mihai Vasiliu 2024-05-06 14:03:15 UTC 
Description:
When installing an extension from local file, LibreOffice asks for restart.
After restarting, LibreOffice asks again for restarting.
This loop continues infinitely until you don't click on Restart anymore and cancel it.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Download an extension offline, for example:
https://extensions.libreoffice.org/en/extensions/show/russian-dictionary-pack

2. Double click on the oxt file and LO will launch requesting the installation and accepting the terms.
3. Close the extension manager by clicking on Close. LO asks for restart and click on Restart now.
4. LO restarts, and then asks again about installing the same extension.
5. Click OK and Close, then LO asks again to restart. Choose again Restart Now
6. Loop continues infinitely.

Actual Results:
LO asks in a loop infinitely to install the same extension. You can break the loop  only if you select not to install again the extension.

Expected Results:
After the first restart, LO should not ask again to install the same extension, as it is already installed.


Reproducible: Always

Note that this does NOT reproduce it you add the exntension with the Add button from the Extensions window interface.

This reproduces only if you double click on the oxt file and open LO this way.
