After installing extensions globally as root, it seems you have to also
run firefox as root at least once to get some extensions to finish

This problem still exists for me in Gutsy. Agreed that sudo is a
feature, but how does this play out with individual user's prefs and

for me in Gutsy. The others installed correctly to /usr/
we switched back to default upstream start script in gutsy. Thus this
issue was fixed. BTW, not being able to install a global extension
without sudo (e.g. root privileges) is a feature.

Yes, this seems to still apply. There is no error or anything. I
attempt to install global extensions and they do not install.

older Mozilla issues and would like to know if this still happens.
