Greetings,
This sounds to me to be less of a "fail" than a limitation, unless LO
advertises that Impress will write a PostScript file format. Then it
could be called a "fail" and should have a bug report submitted on it.
To get you going if you really must have PostScript, you might try
pstoedit, a vector file format converter. http://www.pstoedit.net/ It
may convert (external to LO) a PDF file to a PS file for you. I use it
to convert a PostScript CAD drawing for printing to a DXF CAD drawing
for editing in LibreCAD and it works fine for that. There may be other
converters out there.
HTH.

Using LibreOffice 5.0.6.2 under CentOS 7.x. Impress can only print to a
printer or to a PDF. Even though I specify printing to a Postscript file
via
File / Print / Options / Print to file
then
General / Properties / Device / Printer language type / Postscript (level
from driver)
then specify the file name as
foo.ps
the result is always a PDF. This is a big fail.
