The new version of addon (IE Tab Plus v1.90.20100517) was just approved for public today. But when I opened Firefox, it didn't ask me to upgrade the addon like before. The old one installed in my Firefox is Coral IE Tab v1.85.20100407

I changed addon name from Coral IE Tab to IE Tab Plus in this new version, is that the reason for it to be treated as a new addon so no upgrade prompt are displayed?

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Download and install Coral IE Tab v1.85.20100407 from http://downloads.mozdev.org/coralietab/coral_ie_tab-1.85.20100407-fx-win.xpi



Actual Results:  
Open your Firefox and it wont ask you to upgrade it to IE Tab Plus v1.90.20100517

Expected Results:  
I hope it can upgrade all Coral IE Tab installations to IE Tab Plus smoothly after the name change.

moving to Toolkit/addon Manager but this could be an AMO bug

Does a manual check work for you? If yes, can you please enable extension logging and attach your extensions.log after such a try? When was it working for you directly after installation?

Looks like the problem is caused by the delay of propagation of new approved addons on AMO. So it's not a bug.

Thanks for rechecking. Marking as WFM then.
