RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

A workaround set xpinstall.signatures.required to false at about:config.

Mozilla postponed next regular ESR release (60.7.0) to May 21 (https://wiki.mozilla.org/Release_Management/Calendar). Latest available add-ons hotfix release is 60.6.3.

Hmmm - I ran into the master password problem when I managed to install the mozilla build of 60.6.2esr.
I recovered from it using a backup of the masterpw database. It seems like this new approach will work better.
Thanks for the 60.6.3 build which I will test ...
Comment 12 David Bein 2019-05-13 21:28:39 UTC 
Just tested the 60.6.3 private build from Martin's branch.
--------------------------------------------------------------
(1) The verification workaround disabled
(2) uBlock Origin certainly appears to be happy
(3) No issues with master passwords AFAICT
(4) The only thing I did was re-enable xpinstall.signatures.required to it's default: true

Martin - on behalf of 1000's of Redhat customers - thank you very much :)
Comment 14 Martin Stransky 2019-06-11 05:36:41 UTC 
Fixed by 60.7.0 ESR release.
