Did it actually do anything. I had this happen. But the plugin really did
install it self just in what it felt the default firefox plug in directory
was which was different from the system wide debian directory for firefox
plugins. I simply copied it over and it was done. So I would check to see
if it actually put any file anywhere like if it said it installed but it
really has not.
