** Description changed: In firefox 78.0, the browser.search.modernConfig setting defaults to true, and as a result the custom definitions installed in /usr/lib/firefox/distribution/searchplugins/locale/ by langpacks are not loaded. The upstream meta-bug that tracks this new modern search engine configuration is https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1542235. The setting can be reverted back to false for the 78.0 builds, but eventually the setting will go away (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1619926), so the custom definitions need to be updated. - Relevant upstream documentation: https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla- - central/file/tip/toolkit/components/search/docs/SearchEngineConfiguration.rst + Relevant upstream documentation: https://firefox-source- + docs.mozilla.org/toolkit/search/index.html
