Firefox version conflict before installing uMatrix #988

I'm running Firefox 59.0.2 as well on a WINDOWS as on a kUBUNTU-PC. On both machines, tried to add uMatrix using the Firefox-search for Add-Ons but it's claiming a "newer" version at least Firefox 56.0a1. and that I would use Firefox 52.0, which definitely is not right. Having this issue, the download-button is not accessible. Attached screenshot (German language) showing as well the error message (red line) ans the version window umatrix How can I solve this? Thank you!

You likely set privacy.resistFingerprinting to true.

You can still download it from AMO, manually install it, or temporarily turn off the setting.

Regardless, you should look into what settings do before you change them.
