Details
User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; WOW64; rv:56.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/56.0
Build ID: 20170926190823
Steps to reproduce:
The initial version of my extension requires the "notifications" permission, and has "webNavigation" as optional permission.
There I granted the "webNavigation" permission.
The next version drops the "notifications" permission, and only requires "webNavigation" as optional permission.
Actual results:
When trying to update, Firefox (57+) told that the extension requires additional permissions (webNavigation) and did not automatically perform the update.
Expected results:
Firefox (57+) should have performed the update, because all the required permissions have already been granted.
Firefox 56.0 shows the expected result, the problem only appears on Deveoper (57) and Nightly (58).
