After doing some searching, I found that this issue has been reported
upstream: mozilla 543420. The upstream bug was filed against Windows,
which suggests that this is not an Ubuntu-only issue. The upstream
report also pointed to the support page I provided earlier:
http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Unable+to+install+add-ons which did
not seem to resolve the issue for anyone. However, on that support page
is an area describing how to make sure software installation isn't
disabled. Just to be safe, could someone follow the directions on that
support page and make sure their system hasn't disabled the installation
for some reason? I highly doubt this is the case since nobody seems to
be able to even download the addons, but it's another thing to rule out.

I will discuss this with some of the developers to see if this report
should be linked to the upstream report and if there is any extra
information that we will need.
