I's guess the majority of Firefox users get their addons from AMO and not from the Fedora repos and only a minority of users is affected by this issue. But that are only my 5 cent. BTW: An other interesting fact would be to know if other distributions got the same issue with Firefox and packaged addon and what's their solution. -- Regards, Heiko Adams
