Can't add NoScript addon not compatible with Firefox 42.0

Tried to install NoScript addon today but https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefo ... /noscript/ page says "Not available for Firefox 42.0"

Will this be fixed soon?

Are you able to install it anyway? I think you'll find that it is compatible.

The add to firefox button was greyed out and I did not think to try it.

It does give me the option to "Install anyways" and does let me install it.

Any idea why NoScript is considered not compatible with 42.0?

Not available for Firefox 42.0

That is what it says on AMO.

And this is what it says in noscript-2.6.9.39rc1.xpi (from informaction):

Code: Select all

<em:maxVersion>41.0</em:maxVersion>

AMO grays out that install button erroneously a LOT - my rule of thumb is, unless it says something like "Not available for your platform" (or otherwise complains about your *OS*), just ignore it if possible. Firefox itself will tell you if extension is truly incompatible.
