extensions.autoDisableScopes default value
Closed this issue · 3 comments
The user.js says the default is 15, but, in my case, on Fedora Linux, the default is 0. The default is also 0 in Tor Browser (from Tor Browser Launcher downloaded from Fedora official repos).
What is happening?
It's weird because they set it to 15: https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/applications/tor-browser/-/blob/tor-browser-128.2.0esr-14.0-1/browser/app/profile/firefox.js#L59 (edit: they also set it to 0 https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/applications/tor-browser/-/blob/tor-browser-128.2.0esr-14.0-1/browser/app/profile/001-base-profile.js#L592)
Also, here are some things from searchfox:
https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/remote/shared/RecommendedPreferences.sys.mjs#237-242
https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/browser/app/profile/firefox.js#57-61
Currently, this pref. is inactive in the user.js.
I believe there is an issue somewhere. But where?
Edit: some additional context - #960
But I'm still confused, even after reading through all the comments.
Hmm, so why doesn't arkenfox enforce 15 then? Shouldn't it be the value for all arkenfox users?
- There are reasons why this is set by Fedora. (You will end up with en-US interface because languages package are distributed differently).
- IMHO it's not the job of arkenfox to fixup all the mess all the different Linux distributions do to their firefox builds. (If it is even possible with user.js)
