Installation is not possible yet likewise uninstall.
#1: Clicking Install makes the application hang or throws a warning warn:cui.dialogs:108698:108698:cui/source/dialogs/AdditionsDialog.cxx:819: Additions: addExtension Exception occurred. Tried with "English Dictionaries", the first entry. #2: Install becomes "Installed" and disabled for extensions that have been installed. Though it's not possible to remove.

Install works for me generally. Yusuf: Could you please check to see what is the issue with the extension mentioned above? And the "Additions: addExtension Exception occurred" message seems a bit unclear. It might be a good idea to improve those exception messages. > > #2: Install becomes "Installed" and disabled for extensions that have been > installed. Though it's not possible to remove. I confirm that this is not implemented yet. Yusuf: This is a nice-to-have, but can you please take a quick look to see if you can cook up a small patch for its implementation? If takes long, log your progress here (on the bug report), and leave it for later.

Though it's not possible to remove. Which OS do you use? I can install extensions on Ubuntu 18.04 Gnome. I will fix immediately #1.

Also, I tried on MacOS. Some extensions are installed by default. When I remove them manually, there's no problem with installation as far as I see. The default extensions are not related to Additions dialog.
Installation works, removal not. Think it's not urgently needed.
