[Pkg-mozext-maintainers] Bug#858901: xul-ext-ublock-origin package does not actually work OOTB

[Rohan Garg]

Package: xul-ext-ublock-origin
Version: 1.10.4+dfsg-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

   * What led up to the situation?
     1) Installed firefox and xul-ext-ublock-origin on a fresh install
     2) Launch firefox
     3) Navigate to http://ads-blocker.com/testing/
     4) Ads still shown

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?
     Went to the ublock origin settings page -> 3rd-party lists -> Clicked Apply

   * What was the outcome of this action?
     Ad's started beeing blocked

I believe the issue is caused because of a missing sqlite db in ~/.mozilla/firefox/PROFILE/extensions-data/
where ublock stores the compiled filter lists.
