[Pkg-mozext-maintainers] Bug#807328: flashblock doesn't work with 38.4.0 iceweacel

[Michal Hocko]

Package: xul-ext-flashblock
Version: 1.5.19-1
Severity: grave

Hi,
the current version of the flashblock installed from the debian package
doesn't work with the current version of Iceweasel installed from the
security repository:
iceweasel:amd64/stable 38.4.0esr-1~deb8u1 uptodate

No flash content is blocked but it is loaded automatically instead. I
have checked the plugin upstream [1] and there is a remark about 38.4.0
not being supported: "Not available for Firefox 38.4.0"

I have tried to reinstall the previous version [2] and this one still
works fine. I have no idea why the newer version doesn't work but maybe
the debian package should be reverted back to 1.5.18?
