After upgrading Firefox today to 66.0.3 in -current, all my add-ons
were inactivated. A quick search showed that this is a widespread
problem, apparently due to a bug in FF. I was able to fix it
temporarily by means of a suggestion on ghacks.net to change
xpinstall.signatures.required
in about.config to "false".
Presumably it will be fixed soon upstream.
Disabling signature checks is almost always a bad idea.
Open this url with firefox and install the extension.

Installing random extensions from the big bad Internet is almost always
a bad idea. :-D
This issue was fixed upstream in Firefox 66.0.4. Use Landry Breuil's
repo to keep Firefox updated in -stable or -release. More at
https://undeadly.org/cgi?action=article&sid=20170425173917.
Final result from pkg_add should be:
firefox-66.0.2->66.0.4: ok
