[Bug-gnuzilla] Extension install bug - corrupted extension

[Goran Radunovic]

Hello,


I am considering switching from firefox to icecat but for some reason I
cannot install some of the firefox extensions to icecat 60.3.0esr
(64-bit, Manjaro Linux). I am getting the error "extensions seems to be
corrupt" but I know that work correctly under firefox.


for instance:


https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/fixed-zoom/


or this one (actually featured on the icecat webextensions list)

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/happy-bonobo-disable-webrtc/


Is icecat deliberately disabling installation of some of the firefox
extensions or is this a bug?


With best wishes,

Goran

Hi Goran,

Does the same error message appear if you first download the
extension's XPI and then try to install it via about:addons → Gear icon
→ "Install Add-On From File..."?

Best regards
