GNU Icecat is a Firefox fork focused on privacy based on Firefox 60.7.0esr.

Some add-ons can't be installed in it because the browser say that they're corrupt... and for whatever reason you add-on is one of them.

Starting the browser with the xpi directly in the extensions folder also doesn't work since it's not even displayed in the add-ons manager.

I found the solution, this is a known Icecat "problem": https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnuzilla/2018-12/msg00008.html

The solution is to have:

  "applications": {
    "gecko": {
      "id": "cookiequickmanager@ysard"
    }
  }

In the manifest.json
