Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox

If I install addons and restart firefox they still are not activated and it's said I should restart firefox to get them working. I tried a bunch and all of them have the same issue. It doesn't matter whether these addons are installed manually or by deb system.

I don't think so - since I have this problem with all plugins - not just flash

After today's update in hardy they all got activated. This is great - leaves the sad fact that hardy is §$%& unstable.
