27;', instead i
put addons on global addon folder and set addon scope to use it.
eg 'browser\extensions\' and not 'distribution/extensions/'.
I copy the confing snippet to 'browser\defaults\preferences\'.
I'm on windows, so translate \ and / correctly... ;-)
don't ask anything.
Some addons (i've found only ABP, Ad-Block Plus for now) need some
post-activation explicit setup (eg, ABP need to ask what blocklist
download), and you have to do that, user by user, or sometimes setup
some pre-cooked settings (js) files.
Look ad addon docs, for that.
