Afaiui firefox unintentionally changed its ABI. http://www.mozillazine.org/talkback.html?article=6950 | Just days after the releases of Mozilla Firefox 1.0.5 and Mozilla | Thunderbird 1.0.5, it appears likely that 1.0.6 versions of the two | applications could be coming as early as next week. It is understood | that API changes in 1.0.5 unintentionally broke some extensions. | | In comment 45 of bug 300028, Rafael Ebron said yesterday, "We received | feedback on 1.0.5 from distributors and extension developers on API | changes that affected them (not a security issue), so we're looking at a | 1.0.6 to fix it." It is known that the Enigmail PGP extension for | Thunderbird does not work in version 1.0.5. cu andreas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
