Hello Martin,
What is your version of Debian? What installed add-ons do you have?
I don't have the issue you describe with Firefox ESR on Debian 8 "Jessie".
Firefox developers think also to user of Windows and Mac and you could
install add-ons outside of the Debian repository so the check shouldn't
be an issue if it works properly.
Best regards,
Alex.

This happens with every new Firefox version since a long time:
A window "Firefox Update" appears saying:
Checking Compatibility of Add-ons
----
Checking your add-ons for compatibility with this version of
Firefox.

[ circle animation] This may take a few minutes...
Cancel (active) | Next (greyed out)
This goes on until I click on "Cancel", and then everything is
fine, no matter how much time I wait before clicking the
"Cancel" button.
Not a big deal, but still a little bit annoying and confusing.
Why does Firefox check things, that are hopefully already done
by dpkg? I don't have non-Debian plugins installed.
