Some plugins, not all, fail to install.

That's a bug with the Mycroft site (which you can file at
http://mycroft.mozdev.org/bugs.html), not a bug with Firefox: when you try to
install that plugin, the page says to get it from
http://mycroft.mozdev.org/nowrapper/submit-install.php/v/1872/langenscheidt.src
which returns an empty file.
