Yes, but only one. It didn't need multiple restarts until a few months ago.
After one restart, I'll see something like both old and new versions
appearing in the Add-ons tab, then after another restart the old version
will be gone.

I've seen the issue in every version of Windows between XP and 10, but only
in the last few months. Most likely the same issue affects the Fedora
version as well (I probably didn't see it in Fedora until recently since the
Fedora version was at 4.0.3 until about a month ago) and is caused by some
problem with HTTPS Everywhere and has nothing to do with the OS.

ok. next time you start firefox, open add-ons, look for old version and
remove it. restart firefox.
after this, if you have old version appear, go to;
https://www.eff.org/https-everywhere/issues
at top right of page, you will see a green [Sign Up] button, click it,
fill out form, after you are approved, return to above page, select
green [New Issues] button, click it, fill out form.
reason, when you upgraded https-everywhere, old version should have
been removed. it might be a firefox bug, maybe not. either way, github
should be able to answer question if removing old version does not
correct problem.
do post back with your results.
much luck.
