Greetings all, I recently noticed that uBlock Origins was labelled incompatible with IceCat 52.1.0. The author published a new version (1.14.0) which drops the support for any Firefox-based browser that does not support WebExtensions. It looks like IceCat page saw that version and updated uBlock Origins without (being capable of?) checking whether that version could actually be used.
It was possible to reverse this update by downloading uBlock 1.13.8 from https://addons.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefox/addon/ublock-origin/versions/1.13.8 and disabling automatic updates for it (not sure if disabling them was necessary), but it would be nice if -- until WebExtensions are supported by IceCat, of course -- IceCat would hold back add-on updates if they are marked as incompatible with the corresponding Firefox version (in this case, 52.1.0esr). Kind regards.
