How can I manually install firebug for firefox on Linux ? I'm looking for an automatic process which I can bake into AMI.

I have CentOS 5.9 AMI with firefox 17.0 installed. I would like to add firebug extension (1.11.2) in firefox such that when a user launches the custom AMI in his virtualbox the firefox already has firebug installed.

I downloaded firebugXX.xpi file. When I try to uncompress it and add it to firefox/extensions nothing happens. Also I found out that firefox when launches creates a .mozilla in the user's home directory. I tried to uncompress firebugXX.xpi there but it didn't work either.

How can I do it manually?

You need to rename the xpi file to the ID of the extension as listed in the install.rdf file.
