New issue 1254 by alex.b...@gmail.com: pentadactyl nightly builds - no
new builds?
https://code.google.com/p/dactyl/issues/detail?id=1254

Looks like nightly builds are no longer updated
(http://5digits.org/nightlies). The latest nightly from there is not
compatible with FF 34

FF34 seems to have broken Pentadactyl. I installed the 2014-10-11 build
after editing install.rdf, and it works very badly (I'll open another
issue).

FF35 broke the nightly I was hanging on to (the last one offered at the
nightlies link). Now I don't have hints, I'm unable to scroll up/down when
I open an instance of FF unless I :messclear before doing anything else.

I wonder why the nightlies stopped and if I should start building the code
to produce my own xpi
It still is worth it, but I'm not sure for how long.

To be honest, pentadactyl is about the only reason why I cling to FF

I have been using the nightly snapshot on FF 35.0.1 without any trouble
using the FF addon "Nightly Tester Tools" and disabling compatibility
checks for addons.

Pentadactyl runs just fine (apart from the bugs it has overall, of course)
with it.

@#3, I've had to resort to building it myself, though you need to fix the
regex in the makefile:

Pentadactyl is also the reason I stick with Firefox.
