Signed version/submitting to Mozilla?
Signed version/submitting to Mozilla?
Hi,
I am getting slightly nervous that one of the most important plugins could be locked out on Android in the near future.
What are the plans? I could probably submit a copy of the plugin and get it signed for "unlisted" use but there must be many more users?
TIA
Richard

Re: Signed version/submitting to Mozilla?
It is now very easy to create a signed version with for anyone who has an account on AMO. No review or anything else required. So in principle every user could do that but that would cause problems later once (hopefully?) Noscript will be officially listed and signed.
Code: Select all
jpm sign --xpi /path/to/your-addon.xpi --api-key ... --api-secret

Well, 46.0b1 installed, nsa a10 not working because it's not signed yet. Quick-fix: I toggled "xpinstall.signatures.required" to false. Firefox did not disintegrate

Re: Signed version/submitting to Mozilla?
I tried that and as well with no luck so I added xpinstall.enabled set to true and ff still blocked it. Hmm...js_blocker wrote: Quick-fix: I toggled "xpinstall.signatures.required" to false. Firefox did not disintegrate

Because Mozilla has now disabled that preference from having any effect: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1233199Noidly1 wrote:I tried that and as well with no luckjs_blocker wrote: Quick-fix: I toggled "xpinstall.signatures.required" to false. Firefox did not disintegrate

A while back I downloaded the offline installer for ff 28 for windows for future needs and love that browser.
I just tried searching for legacy versions on their site to no avail.
Do you know where to find older versions so I can get around this "fix"?

Re: Signed version/submitting to Mozilla?
Cool. Thanks.
Just looked up ver28 and see two different linux versions
ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/28.0b9/linux-i686
ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/28.0b9/linux-x86_64
I don't know which would work on a samsung tablet.
Assuming android uses the linux kernel, a non-hacker like me, would think it should work...

Re: Signed version/submitting to Mozilla?
Android may have the Linux kernel, but it's not a "regular" Linux system so I doubt either would work. Also it's a really bad idea to use a beta version that old for any purpose other than regression testing.
I don't use any of these mobile devices, so I'd only be guessing, but try this one?

Re: Signed version/submitting to Mozilla?
Ok, I just did some leg work and found out my cpu is an ARMv7.
So I checked out the latest ff47 folder and and didn't find any sub-folders for android systems.
I did find sub-folders for 2 linux Intel installers, i686 and x86_64 as well as windows and mac.
That is odd. How is it that you can get ff47 for android on google play store but not in the archives???
I guess I have to figuer out if this ARMv7 is 32 bit or 64 bit and try and see if one of the older linux installers will work.

Did you see my last post?
The Linux builds you're trying to use will *not* work on ARM! They are only intended for amd64 or Intel processors, and are binary-incompatible with other architectures. We are not able to help you clean up any mess you make of your system trying to fight that fact.

I typed b4 for I saw this. I don't know how much difference there is between ARMv6 nd ARMv7.barbaz wrote:Android may have the Linux kernel, but it's not a "regular" Linux system so I doubt either would work.

Also, being that android seems to be gnome based, I don't know how a kde version would work or if that is what ff28 is.

According to http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1364 ... patibility ARMv7 is (mostly) ARMv6-compatible.Noidly1 wrote:I don't know how much difference there is between ARMv6 nd ARMv7.
