 Hi Allyn:
 
 Thanks for the report. It seems to be that the new
forward compatibility feature in the install-template.rdf is not
backward compatible (the irony) in FF3.6 and that version only.
 
 I disabled the strict check that would fix it. Currently in
review: http://gwt-code-reviews.appspot.com/1642803/
 
 
 As far as I understand that part is not necessary. It might be if binary
extensions become forward compatible by default (not likely anyways). At that
point I might have to break 3.6 and you might have to use a special xpi for 3.6.
 
 I'll try to file a bug to Mozilla people, I am not sure how willing they are
to going back to fix a bug in 3.6.

 You can download an older build from SVN to get around the problem:

Hi, I've been looking for a solution to this issue as well (Preferably some sort
of rebuild or older version of the plugin).  I was wondering if there has been
any movement on this.  I've found the related defect on this that Allyn 
reported.

GWT Developer Plugin for Firefox not installing completely

2012-02-09 Thread Allyn
Up until yesterday I was using the GWT Developer Plugin for Firefox
3.6 without issue. Then, suddenly, when I started up Firefox yesterday
it did not recognize the plugin as being installed. In the add-on
list, the plugin stated that I had to restart Firefox to complete the
installation. I tried this, many times, to no avail. I even
reinstalled Firefox and downloaded the plugin again. Still didn't
work. I have no idea what would cause it to not only stop working
suddenly and also not to work when I reinstall everything from
scratch. I selected the option to remove all profile and plugin data
when I tried the re-install.
