Is there a way to know which extensions may break when upgrading?

2020-03-06 Thread Steve Dunn
	There seems to be a fair bit of potential for extensions that work in 
2.49.x to break in 2.53.1, based on what people have been posting here. 
I can't say I'm surprised, given that the developers have to try to 
maintain compatibility with an obsolete extension system while grafting 
in components from a browser that moved to a modern extension system a 
few years ago, but since extensions are important, it's kind of a 
problem if the stop working.


	Is there a way to know for sure which of your favourite extensions will 
work in 2.53.1, or is it a case of back up, hope for the best, and be 
prepared to uninstall 2.53.1, reinstall 2.49.5, and restore your backup?

Oh and now Netflix does not work now, (Silverlight plugin maybe?),
except this is ONLY on my Windows 10 desktop. It works just fine on
Linux with SeaMonkey v2.53.1 for some strange reason.

Back up the profile first before you upgrade.  You can then restore it

Or make a new SM installation and profile?

* HTTPS Everywhere 5.2.20

 I stopped using SeaMonkey for most browsing a couple of years ago - 
Firefox is so much faster, has fewer sites that refuse to work with it, 
gets security updates much more promptly, and doesn't have to rely on 
obsolete extensions.  I mostly use SeaMonkey for email and newsgroups, 
and if some of my other extensions break, I can deal with it.


-Steve


If "I mostly use SeaMonkey for email and newsgroups" why not use 
Thunderbird in place of SeaMonkey?? That would save using resources on 
the unused Browser portion of SM!

I have a virtual machine (Win 10 Pro) that's running a beta of 2.53.2,

tested extensively, but as far as I'm aware, all of these work without 
difficulty:


* Add-ons Manager - Version Number 1.5
* Cookies Exterminator 2.9.4
* Copy Plain text 2 1.6

I also have the Classic Addons Archive installed, just in case.  I agree 
that it's preferable to get extensions from original developers 
(especially stuff that's newer than what was hosted at 
addoms.mozilla.org, or got dropped from there), but there's at least a 
couple of things I have (and I don't remember which) that I've been able 
to get from there.


If you haven't seen the Classic Addons Archive, it's a huge .XPI file 
that you can install (with nearly everything in it), and allows you to 
browse locally, in the same way you would at AMO.


As for PrefBar, it got removed from AMO before the archive was created, 
and so you can't get that there. But as others have noted, it's still 
available from the developer directly.


The only problem that I've had with newer versions of extensions has 
been with Display Mail User Agent.  I've been running 1.7.0 that in 
Seamonkey 2.49.3, and recently updated to 1.8.2. After doing that, I had 
problems in the mail client, especially with using the space bar as a 
trigger for scrolling text in mail windows (but not web pages). When I 
downgraded back to 1.7.0 and that problem went away.


I just checked my 2.53.2 installation (I haven't yet upgraded my main 
machine from 2.49.5 yet), and with that running Display Mail User Agent 
1.8.2, I am seeing the same issues with it disrupting scrolling with the 
space bar.

Probably not.  I *think* I can explain this correctly, and hopefully, I 
don't need FRG to step in and correct me.


What's going on is the the structuring for how extensions are handled. 
Up to Firefox 57, that was all XUL.  At FF 57, XUL was dropped, and for 
later versions, it's all WebExtensions, a completely different API and 
coding structure. This is one of the reasons that some number of 
extensions have died, because there are some number of functions that 
XUL supported that WebExtensions do not.


With NoScript, 5.1.9 was the last XUL-based version.  It will not run on 
Firefox 57 or later.  Newer versions of NoScript are WebExtension and 
will not run on browsers that don't support WebExtensions. 
Predominantly, those would be the various Firefox forks, including 
Seamonkey, Palemoon and Waterfox.


With Seamonkey, I believe that 2.53.1 is based on Firefox 56 (rather 
than 50.9esr) . For 2.57, I believe that it's based on Firefox 60esr, 
and my understanding is that 2.57 will support both WebExtensions and 
XUL, in the way that Thunderbird does, I know that with Thunderbird, 
when TB 60 was released, XUL extensions had to be adjusted to allow for 
explicit support of 60 or higher, and extensions that were not adjusted 
were no longer usable.  My impression is that for some, it was simply a 
matter of adjusting the .XPI to allow TB 60, but for others, I'm aware 
that there were more substantial coding revisions that were required.


As noted previously, I have a virtual machine that has a beta of 2.53.2 
installed, and I've been tracking 2.53 installs to watch for near-future 
changes, including handling of extensions. I don't know how many more 
2.53 releases that we'll see before 2.57 is released, but it sounds like 
that it may be worth starting to do more serious tracking on 2.57, 
before too long.


Reference sources:

1) Notes from Seamonkey devs Status Meetings, at 
https://wiki.mozilla.org/SeaMonkey/StatusMeetings . They typically meet 
twice a month, and meetings are announced in the 
mozilla.dev.apps.seamonkey newsgroup.  I've found these notes to be 
useful for knowing where things stand with development.


2) Downloads for developmental copies of Seamonkey:

- 2.53.x: http://www.wg9s.com/comm-253/
- 2.57: http://www.wg9s.com/comm-257/

I don't run these against my primary working profile (and in fact, as I 
write this, I'm still running 2.49.5, but plan to upgrade today), and 
it's nice to have the luxury of virtual machines for testing.  But it 
does definitely help me to be able to see what's coming, and what the 
current status is.

I know the following do NOT work with 2.53.1:

* Theme Font & Size Changer (no expire) 53.0

One follow-up...

I just finally upgraded my primary working machine to 2.53.1, and there 
I make a lot of use of this version of Session Manager.


A review of the Release Notes indicates that there's a glitch in one of 
the .js files, and I confirm that I had that issue, as well, causing the 
extension's icon to not display in the proper toolbar.


I followed the instructions to adjust the necessary .JS file (to do 
that, I used the 7-Zip file manager to locate the file, and then 
selected "edit" to apply the necessary fix -- it's not necessary to 
extract the file, and then re-insert into the .XPI file), and when I 
reinstalled the extension with this fix, Session Manager is working as I 
expect.

Spacebar for one screen at a time (and SHIFT spacebar for a full up

Yeah, it's a pain. Newer UO ext. will not need to do that manual method
