295155 - Uninstallation of global installed extensions or themes

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 272653

(Toolkit :: Add-ons Manager, defect)

Description

[Henrik Skupin [:whimboo][⌚️UTC+2]]

There is currently no way to uninstall global extensions or themes. Several
command line options are available
(http://www.mozilla.org/projects/firefox/extensions/commandlineoptions.html) but
no-one to uninstall an extension or theme. With the options above you can run a
installation on different computers by a script. Due to the missing
-uninstall-global-extension argument an uninstallation is currently not
possible. It's really a pain for network administrators cause they have to do
this by hand for every Fx installation.

Was this option forgotten when implementing the new extension manager?
