Could create pseudo-organization for ublock, but sadly gorhill is a Canadian.

At least for me, the problem is back for the very recent v1.16.0. Anybody else?

EDIT for clarification: The downloaded .safariextz from the "Releases" section gives the "Safari can’t install this extension" described above.

@accolon if you are referring to the update not reflecting in the extensions, then yes. I am having the same problem as you right now.

I have the same problem. Downloaded the extension and click to install produces a pop-up with:

Safari can’t install this extension An error occurred while installing the extension “uBlock Origin”.

[maciboy]

For me it worked seamlessly 😁 Safari settings and the uBlock Origin menu itself reflect the update, saying 1.16.0 (Safari 11.0.3)

[fostermarke]

Have just tried again but manually removed the previous version first. Now success!

[marcothuemmler]

Had the same problem. Removing the older version fixed it for me, too.

Safari extension store is still serving the old 1.15.4 version. Are there any problems with the store authorisation.
