When there is an error in the downloaded list of extensions as JSON, it might cause a crash of LibreOffice. An example error seen on terminal on such a crash: terminate called after throwing an instance of 'orcus::json::parse_error' what(): string: illegal escape character 'u'. (offset=204406) Seems like we need some try-catches, and extra checks.
