Package: firefox
Version: 1.5.dfsg-4
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch
I've written a simple /usr/share/bug/firefox/script to include in new
reportbug reports the names and versions of installed extensions. It
may not yet be acceptable for inclusion into the pacakge, but I've
tested it against some (exhaustive?) Debian packages, and the output
is what I intend, sane, and seems to have useful content. It is still
not clear to me what directories need to be seached; it may well be
that /u/l/m-f and /u/s/f aren't ever used by firefox for loading
extensions.
I don't know the best way of accessing ~/.mozilla/; best would be
something that doesn't assume certain variables are set, doesn't
assume it is under /home/, and doesn't require parsing the output of
getent or whatever.
I've also written a libxml thingy in C, which actually parses the html
.. presumably there is some tool that makes this unnecessary, but I
was bored, and was able to borrow from a pre-existing work.
#! /bin/sh
set -e;
dirs="/usr/lib/firefox
/usr/lib/mozilla-firefox
/usr/share/firefox
/usr/share/mozilla-extensions
$HOME/.mozilla/
";
exec 1>&3;
for f in `find $dirs -name install.rdf`;
do
echo "$f:"
for g in name version;
do
echo `grep "em:$g" "$f"`;
done;
echo;
done;
Here's the output it generates for the given extensions:
