Re: [Bug-gnuzilla] Extension install bug - corrupted extension

[Goran Radunovic]

Hi Felix,


thanks for the reply. I accidentally replied only to you instead to the 
whole list :/


Here are some extension that can be added to icecat without a problem:

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/cookie-autodelete/

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/darkreader/

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/decentraleyes/

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/i-dont-care-about-cookies/

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/keefox/


An here are some more that cannot be installed because it gives the 
error that the extension seems to be corrupt:


https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/google-translate-toolbar-en-ru/

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/disconnect/

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/first-party-isolation/

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/text-contrast-for-dark-themes/


It seems to me that the problem must be icecat specific since exactly 
the same bug appears on desktop icecat and on android icecat.

My desktop icecat is installed from

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/icecat-bin/

on my Manjaro system.
