Package: xul-ext-greasemonkey
Version: 3.8-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

After updating firefox to version 54.0, the list of userscripts in
about:addons is empty, and the installed scripts aren't applied to the
webpages anymore. This seems to be issue #2488 in greasemonkey, which is
solved in version 3.11 of greasemonkey.

https://github.com/greasemonkey/greasemonkey/issues/2488

When started from a terminal, firefox outputs the following error:

1497523208324   addons.manager  ERROR   Exception calling provider <unnamed-provider>.getAddonsByTypes: TypeError: GM_util.getPreferredLocale is not a function (chrome://greasemonkey-modules/content/script.js:148:9) JS Stack trace: getBestLocalization at script.js:148:9 < Script_getLocalizedDescription at script.js:156:20 < ScriptAddon at addons4.js:98:3 < ScriptAddonFactoryByScript at addons4.js:74:28 < AddonProvider_getAddonsByTypes/<@addons4.js:50:27 < AddonProvider_getAddonsByTypes at addons4.js:49:7 < callProviderAsync at AddonManager.jsm:298:12 < promiseCallProvider/<@AddonManager.jsm:322:53 < Promise at Promise-backend.js:390:5 < promiseCallProvider at AddonManager.jsm:321:10 < getAddonsByTypes/<@AddonManager.jsm:2556:36

Also, setting intl.locale.matchOS to false does get the scripts working
again. But since the default in firefox is true, this should only be a
workaround an greasemonkey should be updated to a fixed version.

Thanks,
Salz
