No add-ons page in IceCat
Add-ons page does not work in IceCat. It's fine in Abrowser.
Guys
I had the same problem with A-browser, some of the plugins do conflict with each other. What I did was stress each other individually, example for cookie busters,I'll use one plugging not 2, another one for enforcing HTTPS everywhere from FSF is the best for that purpose.
The plugin ABE is real good. Grease monkey is good for Windox machines not GNU/LINUX.
Example: using sand box technology, Ill browse into a server that I know from experience are full of commercial cookies, and redirect. Meaning everything I do is virtual browsing. That is using my firewall to block the ports.
I'll tweak each setting of the plugin to understand what is blocking and doing. Once I got the plugging enhance and tested, with the desire settings. I'll deploy them for my need. The beauty of sand boxing, be careful you better know what you are doing, it leaves nothing behind as cookies, everything is vaporize once you are finished.
I use a 3.0 128gb USB, stays in the USB and not my hard drives. Basically the same technology of honey pot servers is almost identical as SAND BOXING!
I'm able to run any flavor of browser virtually and browse the net in a sand box. All in a USB. You could even download in a sand box mode.
Basically, I ll dual boot in a USB and not in my hard drive.

My apologies I did miss understood. Are you trying to install other plugin not listed?
On Trisquel 7 RC Icecat addon page is indeed missing. Gnash doesn't work. Duckduckgo and some other websites behave funny..
What I did is - removed icecat. installed noscript, adblock edge, https everywhere. Modified manually the user agent. I did the panopticlick test (panopticlick.eff.org) on both icecat and abrowser. On the default iceacat I got 19. After I tweaked a little my Abrowser I got 8.4 !!!
As Montgomery says - excellent...
Here is a link you can use to get a picture of how you set your user agent
