I've found that running:
$ sh -x iceweasel -install-global-extension /root/dom_inspector-2.0.0-fx
+tb+sb+sm.xpi

the script iceweasel ends executing:
exec /usr/lib/iceweasel/firefox-bin -a firefox -install-global-extension
file:///root/dom_inspector-2.0.0-fx+tb+sb+sm.xpi

that does not install anything on /usr/lib/iceweasel/extensions/

but if I run:
$ /usr/lib/iceweasel/firefox-bin -a firefox
-install-global-extension /root/dom_inspector-2.0.0-fx+tb+sb+sm.xpi

the extension is installed, note that I have only removed file:// from
the path to the extension.

Description: lightweight web browser based on Mozilla
 Iceweasel is a redesign of the Mozilla browser component, similar to
 Galeon, K-Meleon and Camino, but written using the XUL user interface
 language and designed to be lightweight and cross-platform.
 .
 This browser is based on the Firefox source-code, with minor
 modifications. Historically, this browser was previously known as
 Firebird and Phoenix.


hope this help
