general.useragent.override breaks Auto Tab Discard #225

Closed ghost closed 3 years ago

ghost commented 3 years ago

@rNeomy The extension has suddenly stopped working for me on Firefox Nightly (890a1) on Windows 10. About:Debugging shows 2 errors:

  1. Reading manifest: Warning processing background.persistent: Event pages are not currently supported. This will run as a persistent background page.
  2. Reading manifest: Warning processing storage: An unexpected property was found in the WebExtension manifest.

Found the culprit. Apparently, spoofing user agent, with general.useragent.override breaks Auto Tab Discard. Can it be made to work with useragent override?

I'll update the issue title.

Thanks for the report. Should get fixed by the next release. Reopen if not.
