After updating Firefox to the newest versions, all my addons are disabled (like adblock, noscript etc.). They show up fine in the addon menu, no hint as to why they don't work. If I want to update or reinstall, I get the following error:

(German:)
Fehler

Firefox konnte das Add-on von folgender Adresse nicht installieren:

Grund: Bei der Installation ist ein unbekannter Fehler aufgetreten.
Schauen Sie in der Fehlerkonsole für weitere Informationen nach.

In the console I find different errors, like Mozilla.Expander is undefined, method.apply is not a function.

I cannot browse like this with an unfiltered web, please help fast!

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.update to new version
2.all addons are still there but do not work
3.installing / updating them creates the listed error
Actual Results:

well i kinda expected that all my addons would still work. or at least show an error message why they don't. and of course I'd expect the updates / installs to work as well.
