Although not internationalized, the extension should work (in English) in other 
languages. I just tested with my system set to German without a problem. I 
suspect this problem was fixed in a newer release of the extension - please 
uninstall and install the latest one.

I was able to install it in extension developer mode. I simply used 7Zip to 
unpack the .crx file before loading it in developer mode unpackaged. Works 
flawlessly. Read more about loading unpacked here:

This is still an ongoing problem for extensions with localization (locales) on 
some installations. http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=57370
