Build: Firefox 17 Beta 3 (2012-10-23), Firefox 18.0a2 (2012-10-23), Firefox 19.0a1 (2012-10-23) Devices: Samsung Galaxy R (Android 2.3.4), Acer A500 (Android 3.2.1) Steps to reproduce: 1 Install Phony add-on (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/android/addon/phony/?src=homepagebrowse). 2. After the add-on is installed retry the installation. Expected results: After step 2 a toast notification should appear notifying you that the add-on that you are trying to install is already installed. Actual result: The behavior is like when you install the add-on for the first time.
The "actual" behavior is what we want. Mozilla allows add-ons to be re-installed over an existing add-on, even if the version is not different.
