User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:65.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/65.0
Steps to reproduce:
Try to side-load a webextension while a legacy extension is in the extensions directory.
In shell:
dest='/usr/share/mozilla/extensions/{ec8030f7-c20a-464f-9b0e-13a3a9e97384}'
sudo cp we@example.com.xpi $dest
sudo cp legacy@example.com.xpi $dest
firefox-65 about:addons
Actual results:
The webextension will be disabled, and the user will not be prompted to enable it. The hamburger menu will not display a little yellow exclamation mark.
Expected results:
The user should be prompted to enable the side-loaded webextension (with a little yellow exclamation mark in the hamburger menu), as happens normally when there is no legacy extension in the extensions directory.
