The reason for this is an internal API change as I explained on Stack Overflow <https://stackoverflow.com/a/42515910/432681>.
I'm sorry to disappoint you, but the development of Firebug is officially discontinued <https://hacks.mozilla.org/2016/12/firebug-lives-on-in-firefox-devtools/> in favor of pushing the Firefox DevTools <https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Tools>. To be clear, Firebug stops working completely once multiprocess Firefox <https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Firefox/Multiprocess_Firefox> is enabled but at the latest when Firefox 57 is released, because that version will only support WebExtensions <https://blog.mozilla.org/addons/2016/11/23/add-ons-in-2017/> (and Firebug is based on different APIs). So, you're advised to switch over to the Firefox DevTools. There is a Firefox DevTools migration guide for Firebug users <https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Tools/Migrating_from_Firebug>. They still miss some features Firebug had, which are tracked in bug 991806 <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=991806>, the most important ones in bug 1267303 <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1267303>, but they also provide some advanced tools.
