Re: Update XPI
Nice one, saves manual editing!
Do keep in mind that this will not magically transform an add-on to something that is guaranteed to function, it will change the installation information inside the .xpi only. Add-ons that are truly incompatible beyond the "version number" in the meta-information will remain incompatible.

Re: Update XPI
Yes i know you're right, not for too old add-on of course, in waiting after an (eventual) update... i prefer updated occasionally an xpi i trust instead of disable the compatibility and worse instead to install manually a crap freshly uploaded founded on the Mozilla Add-ons' Repair. A drag and a click it's faster and it's not a drama i think.

Re: Update XPI
Hey, as I tend to do a lot of manual xpi updating, this looks useful and would save a lot of hassle, I'll give it a try - cheers.
