GNU IceCat 52: "Edit channel art" sign in broken #138

Open davidhedlund opened 7 years ago

Install GNU IceCat, and read more about GNU IceCat at: https://www.gnu.org/software/gnuzilla/

1 Go to your YouTube page. 2 Hover over the your banner and click "Edit channel art". 3 A message appear on the page saying: "In order to select an item from your online storage, please sign in. Sign in". 4 I click on Sign in which open a pop-up window with URL https://accounts.google.com/ServiceLogin?continue=https%3A%2F%2Fdocs.google.com%2Fpicker%2Flc&btmpl=popup&hl=en_us. Nothing at all happen when I try to Sign in here. 5 I get back to the same state as in step 3. 6 I repeat step 1-5 again. This time I get this message: "There was an error! Details: The feature you requested is currently unavailable. Please try again later."

This bug occurs in the following browsers:

I can use Firefox 52.2.1 to upload channel art,

However, I'm posting this to help GNU IceCat as it is a wide project now based on the latest Firefox ESR version. The user agent in icecat-52.1.2 (Trisquel package) is set to (wrong) user agent: "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:45.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/45.0" by default so this is not a user agent issue.

Is IceCat prohibited from using YouTube in other ways?
