For experts in FireFox:

I have a bunch of weird values in about:config of Firefox speaking about

jetpack.xpi

How can I find out which plugin created them? Jetpack.xpi does not appear my plugin list

"Jetpack" itself is a framework to create / program extensions for Mozilla products. It is not a extension itself, but a library. In the progress of implementing "multi-process" aka "e10s" aka "electrolysis" it was needed to seperate this "jetpack.xpi" out of the main blob "omni.ja" to ensure the process encapsulation. As Library (and part of the firefox program), "Jetpack.xpi" will never appear in the plugin nor in the extension list, as it is only loaded as a library by extensions and not directly. These "weird values" should not exist in a fresh profile. - Either you have a problem with a extension, then create a fresh profile and add your wanted extension one by one and check for the re-appearance of these values between each installed extension. - These entries are left-overs from earlier extension versions, in "about:config" if in the "status" column is "user set" (or similar) shown you can move you mouse to this line and right-click to get the context-menu, there select "reset". - Or you have a corrupted profile, then use "about:support", open your profile folder, shutdown Firefox, make a bakup of the "prefs.js" file, and open the "prefs.js" in a pure text editor (vim/gedit/kate/etc...) and search for "jetpack.xpi" and remove/ edit these entries (if you know what you do, else, its easier to choose Restore) for Restore, have read beforehand: German: https://support.mozilla.org/de/kb/firefox-bereinigen English:https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/refresh-firefox-reset-add-ons-and-setti... -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
