[0.7.30] Font broken in Extensions tab after FF updated to ver. 49 #137

Closed mikolajek closed 7 years ago

mikolajek commented 7 years ago

After I updated my Firefox to ver. 49 (and all consecutive ones), the font in the Extensions panel got bigger than the usual and no special or national characters are displayed anymore (see screenshot). The font in all other tabs stayed the same, so only Extensions tab seems to be affected. I haven't found any option to manipulate text in tabs, so I assume it's a bug...

Here's the Downloads tab preview to compare: aios2

Hmmm... I did a rollback from 0.7.30 (and earlier 0.7.29) to 0.7.28 because of another issues (see #138), but I seem have the font problem with 0.7.28 too.

Can't say ATM if in this case AiOS alone is the culprit, though, because I'm using a number of other addons which could also be responsible for this (it could be possible that the addon Classic Theme Restorer could also have something to do with that (I remember faintly to have read something about that addon, but can't really remember right now if my memory is correct in that case right now). Guess I'll play around deactivating other addons to isolate the problem in the next weeks and keep y'all posted here if I should learn something new and significant.

I'm not able to reproduce this issue. Most probably it's a compatibility problem with another extension or theme. Are you able to reproduce it with all other extensions disabled and using the standard theme?

..it could be possible that the addon Classic Theme Restorer could also have something to do with that..

I also saw this (or very similar) problem after updating tp FF49.0.2 and then CTR 1.5.8.1.

I noticed that in CTR options,

Add-on manager > 'Alternative appearance' was enabled. I don't believe I had chosen to enable that and, when I disabled it, the problem went away.

I have a lot of catching up to do at present, so won't stop to explore, but I suspect that CTR 1.5.8.1 is at the centre of this problem.

Aaaand Bob's your uncle! Checked it too, and it was exactly the same. You can even watch the font change when having the addon-tab and the CTR options (I'm also using CTR 1.5.8.1) open and toggling the option.

@mikolajek, your first screenshot doesn't show if you're using the Classic Theme Restorer addon. So if you have it installed, it might help if you try the solution from RDL-github and tell us what happens.

Yes, you're totally right about the "Alternative appearance" option, RDL-github! Thank you for this suggestion!

I disabled it and my list is ALMOST back to normal - I'm saying "almost" as the font size is now correct but the "bush characters" are still present there... :(

OK, strangely enough the font encoding issue seems to have been linked to the certificate I have installed in my FF. I've just updated it as a part of regular maintenance and the fonts are now presented in a correct way...
