[Bug 430920] [NEW] add-ons do not install or uninstall either after restart or reboot

[jimboisme]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

Ubuntu 9.04 - the Jaunty Jackalope - released in April 2009
firefox - 3.0   3.0.14+build2+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.9.04.1

When I install or uninstall an add-on it presents the message "This add-
on will be installed when Firefox is restarted." I expected it to.

This did not happen. The message remains as though firefox never
restarted, attempts to abort are met with little success. I've restarted
many times and the problem has persisted for a few weeks. I'm hoping a
system change may fix the problem, like switching to an older version of
firefox and back, but I don't know how to do that yet with Ubuntu. Good
luck.
