I’ve also encountered this issue while installing: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/new-tab-by-yahoo/?src=cb-dl-users

I also have this issue with my addon https://addons.mozilla.org/fr/firefox/addon/keepintab/.
The manifest can be found here : https://github.com/nicofrand/keepintab/blob/master/manifest.json.

It uses SVG and the SVG is provided withing the xpi (not on a remote server).

For me on Firefox 57.0b4, the icon appears in the details of the addon but in the list it appears for half a second and then disappears (except when the devtools are open : it does not appear at all).

It appears it comes from my SVG https://github.com/nicofrand/keepintab/issues/1#issuecomment-334696931 but I don't get why.

Comment 4

[Nicolas Frandeboeuf]

According to https://validator.w3.org/check the SVG is valid.

Comment 5

[Nicolas Frandeboeuf]

Sorry for the flood : the content was actually a valid XML not a valid SVG 1.1. It had issues with inkscape/sodipodi attributes it seems (even though the xmlns were provided).

While most of my pictures/viewer and browsers have no issue displaying it, that might be a hint.

Even with a valid SVG, the icon is still not displayed in about:addons list.

Comment 7

[Nicolas Frandeboeuf]

When adding the addon through about:debugging, the icon is always displayed. It only fails when the addon is installed through addons.mozilla.org.
