Greasemonkey / Fifefox 3 RC1

[Jardry]

Greasemonkey was working with Firefox 3 Beta, just upgraded to Firefox
RC1 and greasemonkey no longer works.
Any ideas as to when a compatible version will be released for
testing. I miss my greasemonkey!!!

There's a release candidate of the next update:

Thanks,

For a moment there I thought my world had ended.
Its amazing just how much you miss greasemonkey when its not
available.

You could checkout the code via svn here:

http://svn.devjavu.com/greasemonkey/trunk/

$ svn co http://svn.devjavu.com/greasemonkey/trunk greasemonkey

Then make one small edit to ./greasemonkey//src/install.rdf

On about line 44:

39 <!-- Firefox -->
40 <em:targetApplication>
41 <Description>
42 <em:id>{ec8030f7-c20a-464f-9b0e-13a3a9e97384}</em:id>
43 <em:minVersion>1.5</em:minVersion>
44 <em:maxVersion>3.0.*</em:maxVersion>

Just change...

<em:maxVersion>3.0.*</em:maxVersion>

to

<em:maxVersion>3.*.*</em:maxVersion>

Now build the XPI in the same dir

$ sh ./build.sh

Open the XPI file from firefox and install.

This should work for future 3.x.x RCs

Cheers,
Ryan

Dear users: Please ignore the advice of this well-intentioned but
poorly-informed poster. There's no such Firefox version as "3.*.*",
3.0.* works for this usage.

If you want to run GM in FF3.0RC1 please install this RC1 of GM 0.8:

http://arantius.info/gm/greasemonkey-0.8.20080505.0.xpi

This would be the publicly available build, but Aaron (the lead
developer) appears to be MIA. I'm rather sure he'll have it up on AMO
once he's back.

GM stopped working for me on the upgrade. I couldn't find an XPI so I
built one from svn trunk and it worked.

I guess I was under the mistaken impression I could specify a wildcard
minor version like that in the install.rdf.

Maybe "build it from trunk" would have been better advice? :-)

Cheers,

Ryan

Oh thank you thank you- I hear you, Jardry. I've gone three days w/o
my greasemonkey, and am so glad to have it back I'm almost
embarrassed!

Quoting from a May 19 message by Anthony Lieuallen .You might want to test this.
