Public bug reported:
I may be terribly confused, but when the Zeitgeist add-on didn't show up
in my list in FF 3.6.12 after a make local-install I tried installing it
by dragging and dropping ZeitgeistDataProvider.xpi onto the FF window.
It gave me a normal install add-on dialog, and after clicking install I
got the following error:
"Firefox could not install the file at
file:///home/lyle/dev/zeitgeist/zeitgeist-dataproviders/firefox-
libzg/ZeitgeistDataprovider.xpi
because: Install script not found
-204"
I don't know a lot about FF extensions, but my understanding was that
some form of install script (install.*) was required at the root of the
xpi archive.
