[02:20] <causticsand> Hello, is there a plugin or extension or something that will, after I do a search, right click to prevent that site from showing up again in my search engine?
[02:20] <causticsand> For instance, I'm looking for an owner's manual
[02:20] <causticsand> I search for it and the top I-don't-know-how-many sites say they have it, but are shopping sites to buy it
[02:21] <causticsand> I'm looking for something that allows me to just avoid certain sites that I've discovered aren't free
[02:22] <causticsand> or just aren't relavant to my search
[15:29] <chrisccoulson> bdrung, there?
[15:29] <bdrung> chrisccoulson: yes
[15:29] <chrisccoulson> bdrung, are you aware of http://blog.mozilla.com/addons/2011/08/11/strengthening-user-control-of-add-ons/ , and the implications for packaged extensions?
[15:30] <bdrung> no
[15:30] <chrisccoulson> bdrung, ah. so, basically, firefox disables system-wide extensions by default after upgrading to 8.0
[15:31] <chrisccoulson> and you need to opt in to new ones that are installed
[15:31] <bdrung> chrisccoulson: is there a way to tell firefox that the extension comes from the distribution?
[15:31] <chrisccoulson> well - "system" -> "third party"
[15:31] <chrisccoulson> bdrung, yes
[15:32] <chrisccoulson> bdrung, distribution, or bundled extensions installed in to $libdir (/usr/lib/firefox-addons/extensions on ubuntu) are exempted from the new check
[15:33] <chrisccoulson> bdrung, firefox only considers extensions installed in /usr/share/mozilla and /usr/lib/mozilla as third-party (ie, dropped in there by some evil third party application, like skype)
[15:33] <chrisccoulson> i'm not sure i see the point of the change tbh ;)
[15:33] <chrisccoulson> but i need to deal with it for our extensions for the next security update
[15:35] <bdrung> so, all our extensions are considered as third-party
[15:35] <chrisccoulson> bdrung, yes, they are atm
[15:35] <bdrung> should m-d put the link into /usr/lib/firefox-addons/extensions instead of /usr/share/mozilla for firefox?
[15:35] <chrisccoulson> bdrung, i've already uploaded a fixed ubufox to the firefox-next PPA, but in order to make this work, i've had to use my own version of install-xpi from mozilla-devscripts
[15:35] <bdrung> how will thunderbird behave?
[15:36] <chrisccoulson> bdrung, thunderbird will do the same
[15:36] <chrisccoulson> i've done this for now - http://paste.ubuntu.com/705449/
[15:36] <bdrung> will iceweasel look into /usr/lib/firefox-addons/extensions?
[15:36] <chrisccoulson> i'm not sure what iceweasel will do
[15:38] <bdrung> chrisccoulson: i am happy to apply your patch if you can make sure (= ask mike hommey) that it will work on debian too
[15:39] <chrisccoulson> bdrung, i don't think that will work on debian. we'd probably want to abstract that out to separate debian/ubuntu configs
[15:39] <chrisccoulson> (like what is already done with xul-app-data.csv.*)
[15:39] <chrisccoulson> i guess it would just be /usr/lib/iceweasel/extensions on debian
[15:40] <bdrung> chrisccoulson: so another row in xul-app-data.csv?
[15:41] <chrisccoulson> bdrung, yeah, that would probably work
[19:18] <chrisccoulson> bdrung, i ended up doing it this way - http://paste.ubuntu.com/705554/
[19:19] <chrisccoulson> i'll need to push this out to oneiric and natty with the next firefox update (and rebuild extensions against it)
[19:19] <bdrung> chrisccoulson: get_symlink_overrides is hacky
[19:20] <bdrung> chrisccoulson: we import the csv files already
[19:20] <chrisccoulson> bdrung - where?
[19:22] <bdrung> chrisccoulson: in dh_xul-ext -> get_xul_apps
[19:22] <bdrung> we should move that into a library
[19:23] <chrisccoulson> bdrung, yeah, i thought about that, but the existing stuff is a lot more complicated than i needed :)
[19:23] <chrisccoulson> and this is just so i can fix all the extensions today
[19:23] <chrisccoulson> i don't mind doing it another way longer term though
[19:27] <bdrung> okay
