[Bug 1496994] [NEW] failure of proprietary plugin installation doesn't provide any reasons

  Thread Previous • Date Previous • • Thread Next 
Public bug reported:

After the installation displays a dialog `Plug-in installation
successful` it display another dialog

    Failed to install Plug-in.
    Either you have chosen to skip the Plug-in installation  or entered incorrect Password.

which doesn't make any sense (both the sequence of dialogs and the
possibility of an incorrect password (the installation dialog doesn't
allow those)). The user is left without any ideas what went wrong. The
precise reason and instructions or tips how to fix them should be
provided.
