[Bug 134672] installing Firefox plugins from add/remove applications doesn't work

I'm using Gutsy and I updated my system about 30 minutes ago.
I read on the Tribe 5 release notes about the option to install Firefox plugins from the add/remove application. I tried to install the Launchpad integration plugin when Firefox was running, expecting to be asked to restart it, but I just got a message saying the plugin was installed. I checked on Firefox but didn't see this plugin on the Addons list. I restarted Firefox and it still wasn't there. I closed Firefox and removed the plugin from Add/remove applications, re-installed it, but it's still not there.
I checked if the Add/remove app works at all by installing Dia, which worked perfectly. Then I checked if the plugin was installed by mistake on Gran Paradiso, but it's not there either.
