Well, all these web plugin installation systems as we know it from Mozilla, GNOME and Cinnamon are security risks and should IMHO actually be disabled. They circumvent the package management system, Debian's security support, and leave it completely open to upstream which code get's into Debian and which not. It makes it even questionable whether such packages are allowed to be in main. This is why we also have xul-ext-* packages, with properly packaged extensions, e.g. for Mozilla.

Cinnamon applet (also extensions and desklet) can be installed with cinnamon control center, not need packaging. For now I think there are many other things to do: fixes and improvements at existing packages, and probably packaging other nemo extensions (that is not installable easy and fast from control center) > > > -- System Information: > Debian Release: jessie/sid > APT prefers unstable > APT policy: (500, 'unstable') > Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) > > Kernel: Linux 3.16-2-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) > Locale: LANG=en_DE.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_DE.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) > Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash > > -- no debconf information > > https://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-cinnamon-team > to unsubscribe: > mailto:pkg-cinnamon-team-requ...@lists.alioth.debian.org?subject=unsubscribe > > > - > Nessun virus nel messaggio. > Controllato da AVG - www.avg.com > Versione: 2014.0.4765 / Database dei virus: 4025/8257 - Data di rilascio: > 22/09/2014 > > smime.p7s Description: Firma crittografica S/MIME
