Pzemek: http://extensions.services.openoffice.org/fr/node/201/releases shows there's an 1.2.0 version but indeed, http://extensions.libreoffice.org/extension-center/mri-uno-object-inspection-tool shows only 1.1.2

Andreas: thought you might be interested in this tracker, if I'm wrong, sorry for the noise.

version 1.2 of the extension installs fine, thus

* adjusting title
* setting to NEW.

The working version of the extension in question (1.2.0) can be found here: http://extensions.services.openoffice.org/fr/node/201/releases

LO Extension page lists 1.1.4 as latest release: http://extensions.libreoffice.org/extension-center/mri-uno-object-inspection-tool

I can't log-in on the extension page. Also it's totally unclear how to mark extensions as broken on the extension page. This leads to the general issue that the extension management currently in total is rather flakey. Hope we can come up with a good way of dealing with this and showing very clearly to the user, which extensions do and which don't work or are in need of an update. But that would be another bug in itself I guess.
