--- Comment #1 from V Stuart Foote <[email protected]> ---
Not sure why you would have beleived 3015_eps.zip is a valid
LibreOffice/OpenOffice extension?  Rather, it is a collection of Encapsulated
Postscript images that default Windows installations in general have no
effective means of rendering.

The Extension manager happily copies it to a folder in the user profile, and
unzips the images into a temporary folder.

C:\Users\oofda\AppData\Roaming\LibreOffice\4\user\extensions\tmp\extensions

to remove simply delete it and restart LibreOffice.

Past attempt to remove the invalid extension will be written to a log.txt file
in C:\Users\oofda\AppData\Roaming\LibreOffice\4\user\uno_packages\cache 

The log can be ignored, or just reset your user profile by deletion.

If for some reason, you do want to use the vector icons from 3015_eps.zip you
will need to first extract them all from the Zip file into a folder. Then add
them as a New Theme in the Gallery. When the Properties dialog opens--name the
theme on the General tab, and from the Files tab "Find files" and navigate to
the folder where the EPS are unzipped. Use the "Add all" to complete addition
of the new items to the Gallery.

A couple of points--the EPS from this set all have low resolution TIFF
"previews" that LibreOffice will use. Not very appealing, and you have to
remove the preview to make LibreOffice render the image at higher quality--but
as mentioned Windows does not have the "helper" programs needed for handling
the EPS.

In a practical sense, what that means is that you probably want to convert the
EPS to another image format *external* to LibreOfiice.   A conversion to PNG
would work well enough for most folks.  But a Ghostscript ps2pdf -d EPSCrop
conversion to PDF, piped to a poppler pdftocairo -svg conversion to SVG would
retain full vector resolution.
