Details

When I install an extension, it downloads and installs but I receive no prompt to restart after installation finishes. If I manually restart Fennec, the extension is in place and lists itself as installed. This was found in the 5/8 build that Blassey did for Windows Mobile.
I suspect you are not waiting long enough. I see the restart prompt every time, but it does take a while for it to appear. We are not adding a temporary item to the Add-ons Manager, which would allow you to see the download progress. That would at least give you an indication a download is occurring. Also, we should not be changing to the Add-ons Manager after you "Allow" the add-on to be installed either. We should just stay in the web content and display a popup telling you an add-on is being installed, and then, that the add-ons has been installed and a restart is needed.
I'm seeing the restart prompt and I'm seeing a progress indicator during the download and install.

How about we run my build from last week and I show it to you. QA doesn't like "worksforme" resolutions for bugs we see! :-)
Do you still see this with the current build?
Clint would have to say. I gave him the HTC Pro back since I need to focus on security this week.
