Bug 249064: www/firefox: after upgrade to 80.0 the extensions "floccus" and
"conex" are not working anymore
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D249064



--- Description ---
Scenario:
- FreeBSD 12.1-RELEASE-p6 #6 r362488M
- Latest ports (but issue started with first update to 80.0)
- Firefox at firefox-80.0.1,1
- Extensions "conex" and "floccus bookmarks sync" installed
- "conex" configured with multiple containers and multiple pages in each
container
- "floccus" configured with a webdav location as sync storage

Result:
- Both extensions stop working
- When clicking on the "conex" icon directly after upgrading firefox, the l=
ist
of containers is briefly displayed and then immediately replaced by a white
canvas; subsequent clicks show an empty list
- When clicking on the "floccus" icon, no sync storage is shown as configur=
ed

Expected result:
- Clicking on the "conex" icon should bring up the regular list of containe=
rs
- Clicking on the "floccus" icon should show the configured sync storage
mechanism

Notes:
- From the behavior it seems that these extensions somehow lost the access =
to
their private storage.
- From the FF 80.0 and 80.0.1 release notes it is not immediately obvious t=
hat
the interface for extensions should have changed significantly.
- On a Windows machine where FF has been updated to 80.0.1 by the mozilla
update mechanism, both extensions are still working flawlessly.
