 We have been heavily undermanned for maintaining IceCat add-ons on the
 Free Software Directory. After hundreds of hours I'm not going to
 spend any more time on legacy add-ons except highly relevant add-ons

 Greetings all,

 I recently noticed that uBlock Origins was labelled incompatible

 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.
