I 'm working on this bug
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=46279.
I looked files under the extensions directory but I couldn't find where
checking installation of extensions. I should add a dialog about
installation extensions and user should restart LibreOffice.
I asked this question on IRC and <@jmadero> suggested me that I might
mail the LibreOffice mail list.
Can anyone help me with finding the file or about what should I do ?

The code of the "Tools - Extension Manager..." dialog is in desktop/source/deployment/gui/dp_gui_theextmgr.cxx (all the extension-related functionality is in desktop/source/deployment/), TheExtensionManager::installPackage is the starting point for installing an extension from within that dialog.

However, what we probably want is something more elaborate than simply urging the user to restart LO upon every extension installation (as well as extension update, deinstallation, enabling, disabling?).

The referenced bug quotes some issues (missing menu update for already open documents) that can probably be addressed without needing a restart. There might be other issues that cannot be resolved without a restart, but then we should only urge the user to restart LO if the given extension really triggers that issue.
