Bug#869396: firefox-esr: fails to install extension

[Herminio Hernandez Jr]

Package: firefox-esr
Version: 52.2.0esr-2
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

	To access my works's SSL VPN the appliance installs an extension
	in firfox. This was working a few weeks ago then I rebuilt my
	laptop and now when I tried to reinstall the extension through
	the ssl vpn web interface everything is normal. However when it
	comes time to install the extension it ask for my sudo password
	to install. When I enter it the extension crashes. I have
	another laptop running Arch with firefox-esr installed and it
	installed with no issue. I tried running firefox with a clean
	profile and still the install crashes. There is nothting in the
	about:crashes page to report.

Thanks,
Herminio
