Thanks a lot for the debbuging and the explanations! I’ll try to fix it
ASAP (but it may be a while before I have some time for that).

Bug#819900: Configuration page doesn't work on Firefox 45.0.1

[Evgeny Kapun]

Control: tags -1 - upstream

Looks like the problem is caused by the file 
 being not found. This 
file is located at /usr/share/xul-ext/requestpolicy/content/settings/jquery.min.js, 
and it is a symbolic link. The real location of this file is 
/usr/share/javascript/jquery/jquery.min.js. However, Firefox accesses the file 
through the path 
/usr/share/mozilla/extensions/{ec8030f7-c20a-464f-9b0e-13a3a9e97384}/rpcontin...@amo.requestpolicy.org/content/settings/jquery.min.js.
 Because jquery.min.js is a relative symlink, Firefox resolves it to 
/usr/share/mozilla/extensions/javascript/jquery/jquery.min.js, which doesn't exist. 
While I think that this is a bug in Firefox, a simple workaround is to use an 
absolute symlink.

Package: xul-ext-requestpolicy
Version: 1.0.0~beta11.1+dfsg-1
Severity: important

On Firefox 45.0.1, the configuration page (about:requestpolicy) doesn't open. 
As a result, it is not possible to configure the extension.
