[Bug 961246] [NEW] Firefox add-on manager just hangs & firebug doesn't work after update to v11

[Rob Rosko]

Public bug reported:

Ubuntu 10.10
11.0+build1-0ubuntu0.10.10.2 (firefox)
I expected to be able to use add-ons I had installed and used previously on Firefox v10 before the auto update to v11, and/or at the least have the ability to manage them.
What happened instead, after the auto update to v11 - I cannot get the Add-ons Manager to display any add-ons and subsequently I cannot uninstall/delete any outdated add-ons, nor can I install any add-ons.
