UI broken in latest nightly 55.0a1 (2017-06-02) (64 bits)

[CircleCode]

I'm using firefox nightly (currently 55.0a1 (2017-06-02) (64 bits)) and the UI is totally broken:

This is not what I see here using the same nightly build. Could you try disabling other extensions to verify that none of them is interfering? Other than that, if you enter about:support into the location bar and copy the info it might be helpful.

I tested in a new empty profile with no other extensions, and the same occurs. Here is my about:support (sorry, it's in French :-()

---

edit: removed verbose about:suport since the problem has been found to be related to the locale.

Ah, now I got it - EasyPasswords doesn't have a French locale, and localization doesn't fall back to English for some reason, so all strings are missing. This is weird, seems to be a Firefox bug.

I'm glad you reproduced it. If you want me to make some tests, feel free to ask.

[palant]

Yes, it is reproducible in Nightly but not Firefox 53 - so it's a Firefox regression. I'll need to look into it and report the bug to Mozilla.

thanks for your investigations. In the meantime, since the UI hard to use this way, is there:

• a way to access the list of all passwords with an url
• a way to force the locale until this is fixed

You can go to about:config and change general.useragent.locale preference to en-US. This shouldn't change anything for your browser (there is only a French locale), but extensions should be switched over to English.

I can still reproduce this bug in the current nightly (56.0a1 2017-07-07). However, Web Extensions builds are not affected, everything works fine there. So I'll say that https://github.com/palant/easypasswords/commit/cbff1737415f3ee42ed511a2679e09bab38a5e75 fixes this issue - classic builds are no longer supported, and I will release Easy Passwords as a Web Extension soon.

I can confirm this has been solved by today's upgrade, thanks

The version based on Web Extensions isn't quite out yet, but I'm glad to hear that the issue has been resolved (via a change in Nightly I guess?).

[CircleCode]

I updated nightly this morning, so I suppose this is related (I thought you updated the version, but it is in fact still marked as obsolete, so this is definitely not the web extension version).

[palant]

For reference, Easy Passwords 1.2 has been released yesterday - that's the first Web Extensions based version. It should be through AMO review soon.
