Description

[Aaron Train [:aaronmt]]

Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.6; rv:2.0b8pre) Gecko/20101203 Firefox/4.0b8pre

After installing a variety of Add-ons all found from a search, and removing the Add-ons, one is unable to find the very same Add-Ons again through search.

STR:

1. Open the new AOM
2. Click Extensions, and search for 'inspector'
3. Results return: Dom Inspector, Walnut 2, FireQuery, Rainbow Color Tools
4. Install all of them.
5. Undo/Remove all of them.
6. All Add-ons should be removed.
7. Hit enter on the searchbox (should still contain 'Inspector'). No search is performed.
8. Change panes, and hit enter again on the searchbox. The message, "Could not find any matching add-ons" should appear.

ER: After removing all the addons found from the keyword 'inspector'. If one wanted to search them up again, one should be able to do so.

AR: After removing all the addons found from the keyword 'inspector'. If one wanted to search them up again, one is unable to do so.

Workaround is to close and re-open the manager.

No errors logged in console with extension logging.
