In the office, downloading an update on Wi-Fi from 01/29 → 01/30; tapped the 'Downloading Nightly' notification prior to completion, and it's throwing this NPE in console.

Reproduced after first install for Aurora Firefox for Android (46.0a2 2016-02-24)
Downloading an update and tapped the 'Downloading Aurora' notification.

Phone: Meizu MX2
Android: 4.1.1
Report: https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/62decc82-b581-4d64-abd6-b427e2160226

But after reinstall Aurora it does not reproduced again.
