| Message-ID | <BEdr4-1wT-15@gated-at.bofh.it> |
With the most recent Firefox update, some of the widgets on a Bibliocommons (library) website cease working. They still work either using the Epiphany browser, or my android phone. Any recommendations on how I might debug this? Running DebianAmd64 'Buster'. Thanks for any suggestions! -Frank

Just download Firefox archive (from mozilla.org) somewhere under your home folder, unpack it and start it. If the issue is not reproducible then you can to open bug report for regression. Kind regards Georgi

To check on this, shut Firefox down, move ~/.mozilla aside (rename it), then start Firefox up again. If that solves the problem, you have some re-installing to do. If that doesn't solve the problem, reverse the above. -- Does anybody read signatures any more? https://charlescurley.com https://charlescurley.com/blog/

As such, I presume it's a matter of piece-by-piece "installing" add-ons and configuration settings, not installing Firefox itself since that "works". Thanks for the tip!! Frank

And test as you install, in case it is one of the add-ons, rather than Firefox loosing its marbles. -- Does anybody read signatures any more? https://charlescurley.com https://charlescurley.com/blog/
