commit e7c777bf8ffea7dc27df69d64ff2e0def05ce082 Author: Alex Catarineu acat@torproject.org Date: Fri Sep 4 12:34:35 2020 +0200

Bug 40091: Load HTTPS Everywhere as a builtin addon in desktop

This loads HTTPS Everywhere as a builtin addon from a hardcoded resource:// URI in desktop. It also ensures that the non-builtin HTTPS Everywhere addon is always uninstalled on browser startup.

The reason of making this desktop-only is that there are some issues when installing a builtin extension from geckoview side, making the extension not available on first startup. So, at least for now we handle the Fenix case separately. See #40118 for a followup for investigating these. --- browser/components/BrowserGlue.jsm | 37 ++++++++++++++++++++++ .../mozapps/extensions/internal/XPIProvider.jsm | 13 ++++++++ 2 files changed, 50 insertions(+)
