Olivier Godart, thank you for apport-collect'ing and installing the
libreoffice package.

Regarding your comment 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/1034370/comments/6 :
>"Ok, I installed libreoffice-pdfimport and now when I insert a pdf file, it 
>inserts a frame with the pdf content. That's good,..."

Your original issue was due to you not having libreoffice-pdfimport
installed. The LibreOffice debugging article
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibreOfficeBugWrangling has been updated to help
prevent this.

>"...but it's still not possible to insert a clickable icon instead of
the actual document."

As per http://help.libreoffice.org/Common/Insert_OLE_Object you will not
be able to have a clickable icon, other than the actual document
embedded as an object, as you saw.

>"If for example I would like to insert a zip file instead, I just
can't."

This desire to be able to embed any file extension type seems to be a Won't Fix 
Wishlist as per 
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibreOfficeBugWrangling#Wishlist_Reports . With this in 
mind, if you want to see in LibreOffice both a clickable object, and desire to 
embed any file extension type, this should be split up into two different bug 
reports. For more on this, please see the Ubuntu Bug Control and Ubuntu Bug 
Squad article:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/BestPractices#X.2BAC8-Reporting.Focus_on_One_Issue

and Ubuntu Community article:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_Reporting_Etiquette

If this is the case, could you please file a new report by executing the 
following via a terminal, and subscribe me to it:
ubuntu-bug libreoffice

This new report would focus on inserting zip files specifically, while
this report will remain focused on the clickable icon.

Is this the case?
