If you have issues with this package visit gitlab and read the readme first.

Hi, @Thaodan First of all: some old extensions still work in FF57 and even in FF58, if you enable legacy extensions support in the about:config. (but not all and not always correctly) It seems to me that this version should be updated to the 57 because this is the official stable version of the browser which this package should provide, isn't it? So, if some users want to leave the old browser version to save the work of the some add-ons, maybe then: 1. make a separate package for the old version of the browser, because, as it seems to me, it will be more logical than leaving this one, and make another with the new version 2. maybe "old" firefox-kde package should be based on Firefox 52, because 52 is ESR and it has a longer support period than Firefox 56. Best regards, Eugene

I don't understand why this is still v56?

Hi @Thaodan, I disagree with that policy, the current stable version is the 57, the most add-ons are migrated to webextension, if now some add-ons don't work with v57 they will not soon, and if some users use some no migrated add-ons (I think they are the minority here) if better have other package specific for that like firefox-kde-opensuse-legacy or -v56. If the situation with the old extensions are critical, the arch-devs would not update to v57.

Oh sorry I forgot to poste the link to my repo https://gitlab.com/Thaodan/firefox-kde-opensuse/tree/ff57 There you can grab the latest release

Hi - yeah I had seen that, I think I misunderstood how long that was likely to last. I don't want to speak for anyone else, but personally I can work around broken addons if that's the result of going with 57. I'd be happy to see 56 replaced with 57 now. However, I appreciate your trying to be conservative, not sure how much other folks would be impacted. I'll go back to waiting patiently for the meantime. :-) Thanks!

I just put the latest release in a separate branch on gitlab that I already posted a few comments below. I just don't want to break the browser if some user's as most add-ons don't work with this release that change something's where there's no API for. If no one wants this release any more I can overwrite even before add-ons work better. The 57 works and is updated to the latest changes of arch.

Hi Thaodan. So I'm confused about where we stand based on the comments here. You have everything but aren't sure it's ready yet? This is a fairly anticipated release as I'm sure you've heard. While I appreciate and respect your stewardship of the package - any chance we'll be seeing it soon? Thanks!

Thaodan commented on 2017-11-21 18:10 (UTC)

I applied all changes made by the offical pkgs. I think I'll do the oposite and push this version to gitlab in a ff56 branch. I'll updated both branches as of now.

@Thaodan IMO this package should be in parity with the Firefox package in the repos with all the backported patches without waiting for the add-on to become more mature .
