This might be error prone, because the file can have any name, all it matters is the media type in the META-INF manifest and the OO registry package and name in the file itself. While it's highly rare to find a lala.lala, I've found an "addons.xcu" (in lowercase). No wonder there is no OfficeToolBar in this particular extension, but the extension does not work in AOO 4.0 due to API changes (what shows that the whole discussion centered on the schema change is full of ungrounded assumptions, and lack of knowledge on the subject). > > 242 extensions contain addons.xcu stensioni (total: 1065 releases), 430 > > estensions don't (total: 1660 releases).

Only th > extensions that contain an Addons.xcu with OfficeToolBar It would also be interesting to know the last time the extension was updated; besides that expecting unmaintained extensions to work on a new major release might not be plausible, the extension is likely not be adapted to any change if it is unmaintained, no matter how popular it is (example: the most popular, Oracle PDF Import Extension, Downloads: Week: 12,706, unmaintained since Dec. 2010, seems to be broken - according to the first three comments).
