In the Add-ons Manager I select "Featured Add-ons" and "Adblock Plus".
Noting happens and I am returned to the top of the Get Add-ons page.

Reproducible: Always

When I do that the addons manager displays some information on Adblock Plus briefly but that disappears and all I see is a grey background with a box in the middle with the text:

"Add-ons are applications that let you personalize SeaMonkey with extra functionality or style. Try a time-saving sidebar, a weather notifier, or a themed look to make SeaMonkey your own."

With Minefield I see:

"Add-ons are applications that let you personalize Minefield with extra functionality or style. Try a time-saving sidebar, a weather notifier, or a themed look to make Minefield your own."

The add-on link is going to https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/discovery/addon/adblock-plus/ (NOT services.amo) and the AOM does not like that.

Bug 615401 should have taken care of this.  Looks like we might need to let addon_list() know if it's on the disco pane or not.

Chris - let me know if you're around to work on this asap.  Otherwise I'll find someone else.

Just to mention, the fact that we briefly show the info before falling back to the general message is due to bug 602256
