Thanks Rafael for the report.
I see that CoinMP support was disabled in Ubuntu (it is enabled in
Debian) 5 years ago¹, because of dependency issues. This could/should
probably be revisited. Would you mind filing a bug at
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+filebug to
request this change, including all the information in this e-mail?
Thanks in advance,

 Olivier
