Firefox-aurora's (aurpkg) vimperator add-on does not work

Hello,

The default firefox package in the default package repo works with the add-on but firefox-aurora does not.
The version is vimperator is 3.12.0.

Information on my system

uname -a

Linux 4236-B27 4.4.5-1-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Thu Mar 10 07:38:19 CET 2016 x86_64 GNU/Linux

pacman -Qs firefox

local/firefox 45.0.1-5
    Standalone web browser from mozilla.org
local/firefox-aurora 47.0a2.20160409004012-1
    Firefox Aurora channel - Nightly build]

I have two profiles in ~/.mozilla/firefox/

ls -la ~/.mozilla/firefox

drwx------ 25 name name 4096 Apr 17 19:42 e69i1n9x.default
drwx------ 15 name name 4096 Apr 17 19:33 fnkfby2g.dev-edition-default

Both have the respective .xpi in each extension folder. Firefox-aurora report the add on as installed
but when I press b for buffers or o to open url the box on the bottom does not pop up.

Can anybody help with this matter.

  Thank you

Do you have E10S enabled? Last time I checked that broke vimperator, and I think it's on by default in aurora but not in stable.

Thanks, I checked in the preference and unchecked "Enable multi-process Firefox Developer Edition" and I restarted firefox-aurora. The result was the same no response when calling vimperator. Something is blocking or not allowing it to run. What could it be?

Thanks for your prompt response.
