I think this is rather a simple misunderstanding than a bug.

This issue has nothing to do with the extension 'PDF Import 1.0.5'. If that
extension appears in the 'Extension Manager' (and is not greyed out), it is
already installed and working; you do not need to 'open' it in any way.

The button 'Add...' at the bottom of the 'Extension Manager' window does not
add/open/... the extension you have selecte in the list above, it is used to
add *new*, not yet installed extensions to your LibreOffice installation.
Therefore, if you click on 'Add...', the standard file open dialog window
appears. The button 'Open' at the bottom right of this dialog window is
disabled (grey) because you have not yet selected a valid LibreOffice extension
(file). If you have any valid LibreOffice extension (file) on your hard disk,
and if you select this file in the file open dialog window, the 'Open' button
will be enabled  ...

You can try this easily: go to
http://extensions.libreoffice.org/extension-center, download any of the
extensions listed there to your hard drive, then start LibreOffice, open the
'Extension Manager', click 'Add', select the extension file in the file open
dialog, and *now* the 'Open' button should work.

I hope this explanation helps to solve your iusse.


-- I set the 'Status' field to 'RESOLVED/NOTABUG'. If my explanation does NOT
help you and I just misunderstand your issue, feel free to set the Status field
to 'REOPENED', but then please explain in detail "What do yo REALLY want to
do?", as Rainer Bielefeld put it.

-- I change the 'Platform' field to 'All' because this issue is not
MacOS-specific.
