Details

If you launch Firefox directly from a disk image, the AddonManager doesn't startup correctly:

1505858874807	addons.manager	ERROR	startup failed: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80520013 (NS_ERROR_FILE_READ_ONLY) [nsIFile.create]"  nsresult: "0x80520013 (NS_ERROR_FILE_READ_ONLY)"  location: "JS frame :: resource://gre/modules/FileUtils.jsm :: FileUtils_getDir :: line 70"  data: no] Stack trace: FileUtils_getDir()@resource://gre/modules/FileUtils.jsm:70 < FileUtils_getFile()@resource://gre/modules/FileUtils.jsm:42 < validateBlocklist()@resource://gre/modules/AddonManager.jsm:656 < startup()@resource://gre/modules/AddonManager.jsm:816 < startup()@resource://gre/modules/AddonManager.jsm:3122 < observe()@jar:file:///var/folders/rc/qcgp5b4s6nxf1s0rd1pp6gqr0000gn/T/AppTranslocation/5914512C-3577-410E-B60C-BA656CFB5A5F/d/Firefox.app/Contents/Resources/omni.ja!/components/addonManager.js:65

And things are pretty broken from then on.

Even after restart, things don't work correctly (random errors in extensions).

This definitely used to work (we use it to test distributions)
