No, all I see in ~/.xsession-errors is the installation trail of the extension, after that nothing. Also in my browser log nothing is written. All the other functions like on/off and remove work fine. Looking on the plugin page of my browser I see no version number, only a last updated date, this is 19-04(april)-2012.
