Are you trying to add WebExtensions support to your browser? If not, what, precisely, are you doing?
Yes I'm trying to add WebExtension support while still keeping XUL and NPAPI support

Backported some WebExtension features from Quantum (specifically Mypal 68 version 78) onto 13.1

Got Return YT Dislike and SponsorBlock working now, pre1 coming tonight + some extra debug info for if an extension doesn't work

Below is a demo image of YouTube with those two extensions installed (ubO dash still doesn't work but it blocks ads now)

I do not recommend the usage of the name Basiliscus.

Working on getting a OS X build done (Intel only, sorry I don't have any PPC(64) or ARM Macs). Should have the same requirements as Basilisk's Intel build.

Is it possible to build for linux? the zip / tar doesn't open when trying to view the archive.

Code: Select all

Command: sh -c "exec /usr/bin/gzip -d '/home/jarsealer/Downloads/UXP-13.1-pre2.tar.gz' -c > xa-tmp.decompressed"

gzip: /home/jarsealer/Downloads/UXP-13.1-pre2.tar.gz: unexpected end of file

Literally ripping my hair out trying to find out why mozbuild silently doesnt build a .app, apparently it automatically does it but for some reason it doesn't for me???

I commited the things I modified to get at least a 'Couldn't load XPCOM' binary, I can't figure out for the life of me why it doesn't work

As your upstream focused on windows-only platform, non-windows commits may not be picked by your upstream.

Going to try building Basilisk and Dactyloidae side by side (same mozconfig) to see what changed to get a OS X build working

UPDATE: I am a total baffoon and in my process of stubbing out hardware accel (none work on OS X) I accidentally stubbed out THE MAIN WINDOW RENDERER.

DeArrow should also work as they are using the same codebase as far as I can tell

13.1 prerelease 3 is here! (hopefully the final prerelease before 13.1 goes stable).
Note that this is macOS x86_64 ONLY.

Nice job, a Linux release before that would be cool tho.
