Check /usr/lib and verify that you only have the one firefox
directory.  Various repositories create directories in the form of 
"firefox" or "firefox-xx.x".  You may have Firefox installed in 
multiple locations.

If there is only the firefox-0.10.1 directory, verify that the
symbolic links within plugins are valid:

# cd /usr/lib/firefox-0.10.1/plugins
# ls -l

There should be no red-colored text present.  If there are, the link
associated with that file is broken.  Use "find" or "locate"  to
determine where file for broken link resides.
