Ok, so it seems that you created a self-signed object signing cert (with
signtool -G), which you also use as a CA cert at the same time - is that
correct?

The private key is in the cert db you specified when using signtool -G,
so you need to specify this db when creating the XPI file (not the one
of your XUL app).
