Firefox 43.0 + signature=False, but not working

[alvaro...@gmail.com]

I use able to install pentadactyl by turning off the signature requirement and by changing the install.rdf to maxversion 43. However, pentadactyl is not loading, i.e., I still have the standard Firefox environment (on an Ubuntu release version). Anyone experiencing the same problem who found a solution? Thanks

You either compile pentadactyl from latest source or install latest xpi from here (beware, it is unofficial).

Working for me both ways after this fix in the dactyl repo.

This is not working for me. I'm able to install it but nothing is working. Tried with a new profile also.

Try https://github.com/ffledgling/dactyl-build/releases

I downloaded latest build, changed the id in install.rdf, signed from https://addons.mozilla.org/developers/addon/submit/2, and uploaded to attach file.

You may need to uninstall pervious version.

I just ran into the same problem.  Firefox just showed pentadactyl as "enabled" in the extension list, but it wasn't loading it at all.  The build from https://github.com/ffledgling/dactyl-build/releases worked without a problem though (thanks to its author!).

After diffing both xpi files I found that my locally created "config.json" was broken: there was an extra line with unmatched quotes in there.  The source file looked fine though, so the make process must have screwed something up.

Turns out it was a problem with my git configuration, which converted all the text files into DOS line ending format via the config setting "core.autocrlf=true" (and until now, I used the mercurial repository).  This command fixed it:

    git config --global core.autocrlf input

You probably have to delete your local dactyl copy and clone the repository again.

I've got signed nightly builds up here:

Or you can use my script to make your own:

Many thanks, I now have Pentadactyl running on Firefox 43.0.
