User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:62.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/62.0 Build ID: 20180511100427 Steps to reproduce: Attempted to install https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/latin-dictionary/ on the Nightly 62.0a1 dated (2018-05-11) Actual results: Firefox claimed the add-on wasn't compatible with the version. Expected results: The dictionary add-on should have installed normally. ( However a warning was given suggesting it's the add-on that needs updating.)
Given that this has occured with some other dicitionary add-ons as well, I am wondering if certain validation requirements were tightened up in the 62.x tree (Would have listed this version driectly, but Bugzilla doesn't give that version as an option yet).
I have seen multiple reports on IRC from Nightly users and dictionaries not working.

Looks like this is about to be fixed in the next Nightly build or so.
This still isn't fixed, though a workaround for users is described in bug 14060629. The underlying issue is now tracked in bug 1462056.
