[Pkg-mozext-maintainers] Bug#871712: xul-ext-status4evar: broken in FF54

[Christoph Anton Mitterer]

Package: xul-ext-status4evar
Version: 2016.10.11.01-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable


Hi.

In FF54, the plugin does not really seem to work anymore.
The status bar is shown, but no content in it.

An update seems to be available, solving this:

I really wonder why Firefox (itself) is such a user-hostile crap,
that one needs plugins (which they break every once in a while)
to get back the most basic funcitonality (like showing the URL
of some link in the status bar)... gosh... Mozilla=evil

Anyway... would be nice if the addon could be updated, to make FF
a bit usable again :-)


Chris.
