[Bug 672079] Re: can't install firefox extension, install script not found
Maybe this solution will help you:
sudo apt-get isntall xulrunner-dev bzr libzeitgeist-dev
cd
bzr branch lp:zeitgeist-dataproviders
cd zeitgeist-dataproviders/
./autogen.sh
cd firefox-libzg
make
sudo mkdir /usr/lib/xul-ext-zeitgeist
sudo mkdir -p /usr/share/xul-ext-zeitgeist/chrome/content
sudo make install
I find it in this post - http://www.webupd8.org/2010/07/chrome-
extensions-for-sezen-zeitgeist.html

Title:
can't install firefox extension, install script not found
Status in Zeitgeist Data-Sources:
New
Bug description:
I may be terribly confused, but when the Zeitgeist add-on didn't show up in my list in FF 3.6.12 after a make local-install I tried installing it by dragging and dropping ZeitgeistDataProvider.xpi onto the FF window. It gave me a normal install add-on dialog, and after clicking install I got the following error:
"Firefox could not install the file at
file:///home/lyle/dev/zeitgeist/zeitgeist-dataproviders/firefox-libzg/ZeitgeistDataprovider.xpi
because: Install script not found
-204"
I don't know a lot about FF extensions, but my understanding was that some form of install script (install.*) was required at the root of the xpi archive.
