AddonInstall instances are being held onto, after they are canceled - and get returned by AddonManager.getInstalls()
I mulled over this a bit. Do you agree that AddonInstalls should no longer be returned by getInstalls after they have either failed or cancelled, successful and pending installs should stay permanently?
Thinking about this more, there are cases where keeping them around might actually be a good idea (regardless of their state). See also bug 553499.

Instead, could we have an API that needs to be explicitly called to forget about an AddonInstall. eg: AddonInstall.purge()
This is causing tests to fail so we need to do /something/ here.

Priority: -- → P1
http://hg.mozilla.org/projects/addonsmgr/rev/2a18f6eb0eea removes AddonInstalls when they are cancelled or failed. Let's just do it that way for now and see what other cases come up.

Also a follow-up. Should remove the install from the list before notifying listeners and fix the PFS tests: http://hg.mozilla.org/projects/addonsmgr/rev/5ff859837f75

There must be a better way but that can be a followup bug

Removed that since the changes from bug 555083 make it unnecessary.
