Since the latest Firefox update to 45.7.0 on my CentOS 6.8 system, I can no longer install add-ons/extensions. Things LOOK like they're working but the extensions don't get stored in my normal area and they don't appear in my Add-Ons menu. Is anyone else having this issue?

It has been a while since I added any new extensions so I can't say WHEN exactly this problem happened but .... :(

I don't have any CentOS-6 desktops anymore, but I did a desktop install into a VM and installed firefox and the flash plugin from adobe.. seemed to work OK.

I also installed firessh extension as a test. That also worked fine. This extension was installed in my home directory under:

<home_dir>/.mozilla/extensions/
