Looks like your Firefox failed to copy some files. Please check your permissions.
Can you install other extensions normally?
I've tested a bit a on a Mac OS X 10.4.11 with Firefox 2.0.0.12 and it works fine.

My application support folder for Firefox (and for Flock) was on an EncFS volume

lrwxr-xr-x 1 root staff 58 20 Mar 11:07 Firefox -> /Volumes/gjp22-private/Library/Application Support/Firefox
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root staff 56 20 Mar 11:07 Flock -> /Volumes/gjp22-private/Library/Application Support/Flock

Yes.

If it's relevant, there's no Trash from EncFS; files are deleted immediately.

I have worked around by moving the two application support folders away from EncFS but it's the first time I've had a problem of this nature with Firefox extensions and EncFS.

After noting a problem with resource forks on the same EncFS volume, I realised that I may have been using a Tiger-oriented version of the EncFS binary following a recent upgrade to Leopard.

I'm now using EncFS for Leopard (EncFS-10.5-2.0.0.zip from
and
EncFS.Fusion 0.4.5 from
.

Since then, Diigo Toolbar 3.1.3 installed fine to both Firefox and Flock, using EncFS so

* you can treat this issue as resolved
* not an issue with Diigo.
