Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: iceape

Where as with firefox you can install an addon without root access, with iceape
some addons wont install properly

using Gutsy and Iceape 1.1.1, Copyright (c) 2003-2007 mozilla.org, build
2007021700

goto the mozilla addons site and search for noscript addon (for example)
try to install it, it will report permission problems, after restarting and going to a site 
with javascript it will report that its not installed properly.

install while running iceape with sudo and the install will go ok, if you install system
wide it will work for users now too

to reiterate you do not need to be a super user to install addons in firefox but you
do with iceape
