I'm getting ready for next week's release of firefox-78.9.0 by measuring the build using the current candidate. Looking at our instructions, since 'time immemorial' (ok, more exactly for 3 years, but in our terms that is eons ago) we've had:
mkdir -pv /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins && ln -sfv ../../mozilla/plugins /usr/lib/firefox/browser/ That was created/updated when I changed firefox to 58 and then 59. I can vaguely recall that in those days there were still available plugins. But looking at my current system I see no sign of any plugins in that directory, so I'm minded to remove this unless anyone jumps up and says that with 78.8.0 they do actually have any extra plugins in /usr/lib/firefox/browser. For myself, the only enabled plugin shown in 'about:addons' is the OpenH264 video codec from Cisco which 'is automatically installed to comply with the WebRTC spec' and that does not show up in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins. Copying to -support just in case someone there has a different view. ĸen -- On average, the Panda feeds for 15 hours a day.
