This is an issue with the Ubuntu/Debian version of Firefox.
They changed the build system which makes Firefox not to look in the platform/Linux directory for the platform specific chrome manifest, but in platform/linux-gnu instead.
Aha, that's good to know. In the next beta, I'll just add a separate linux-gnu platform directory. There's not much in there, just a few tiny CSS files.
Sounds like this is the same thing that breaks the google toolbar in Ubuntu Edgy. Upon install it complains that there is no version available for my platform. After seeing this it makes sense. Thanks for the info.

That's a good workaround to fix the problem manually after the extension is installed. However, the Firefox automatic .xpi installation process is not able to launch shell commands or deal with symlinks easily if I'm not wrong.
