Source: adblock-plus Version: 2.9.1+dfsg-1 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable
Hi, since firefox 57 adblock-plus does not work any more. Upstream page[1] says: This codebase is deprecated, it will not work with Firefox 57 and above. As of Adblock Plus 3.0, Adblock Plus for Firefox is based on the adblockpluschrome repository[2]. I tried to build adblockpluschrome using the current packaging code adapted to the new version but my build attempt failed with ... debian/rules override_dh_auto_build make[1]: Entering directory '/build/adblock-plus-3.0.2' TZ=UTC python build.py build --release Traceback (most recent call last): File "build.py", line 10, in <module> import buildtools.build ImportError: No module named buildtools.build debian/rules:7: recipe for target 'override_dh_auto_build' failed ... I have not done much besides adapting the watch file, removing most of the quilt patches since patches files vanished and adapting patch 0004-Drop-dependency-check.patch by refreshing. If you want me to commit this in some branch to save you a minimum of work I can do so. I have no idea how to proceed with the lacking Python module (may this one[3] ??) - there might be a chance to do without this. If you need help and think [3] is essential I would volunteer to package this to help steping forward with this issue. Kind regards Andreas.
