OK, I didn't think anything really valuable was there, so I just deleted ~/.mozilla/ entirely. uBlock Origin loaded fine after that. The bad news is that after I again added the only other add-on that I use, Vim Vixen, uBlock Origin did the same thing again, dying on startup. So it's obviously due to a bad interaction with Vim Vixen. I don't know who to blame for this. Vim Vixen itself is working fine. I guess there are other people using uBlock Origin with different add-ons, and if no one else complains about uBlock Origin failing, then the problem is with Vim Vixen, or perhaps with Firefox. I can't stand to be without either add-on. So in the meantime I will continue with the workaround of disabling and then reenabling uBlock Origin whenever I start Firefox. _______________________________________________ Pkg-mozext-maintainers mailing list Pkg-mozext-maintainers@alioth-lists.debian.net https://alioth-lists.debian.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pkg-mozext-maintainers
