Firefox unsigned/signed and two versions of NoScript?

Post by Gari »

I am using Firefox 40.0b3 beta Win-64 with development build NoScript 2.6.9.30rc4 and was automatically updated to development build NoScript 2.6.9.30rc5 and shows that this new version build was signed; however, upon updating to the stable version NoScript 2.6.9.30, now it shows NoScript could not be verified as signed.

I also noticed upon clicking on "Get Add-ons" and searched for "NoScript" and clicking on "see all 31 results" link, it doesn't show "NoScript" by itself but rather a different "NoScript Security Suite." So, what's the difference between the "NoScript" that I am currently using and the "NoScript Security Suite" now showing on Firefox Add-ons? Please clarify.
- Thanks.

The only difference is the name showing on Firefox Add-ons.

The rest of the stuff you mentioned wasn't a question, but here's sort of an answer anyway: it's just part of a bunch of chaos going on at AMO with them trying to roll out this signing requirement for Firefox add-ons, and yes that whole deal is going to be chaotic and a mess for a while...
*Always* check the changelogs BEFORE updating that important software!

Updated how, from where?
If it comes from AMO, I'd expect it to be signed, & working correctly (barring some error on AMO's side).

If it comes direct from here, AFAIK, last time I looked, it would not be signed.
