Bug#775645: iceweasel: multiple breakages in FF after upgraded to 35, when taking the old prefs.js)

[Christoph Anton Mitterer]

retitle 775645 iceweasel: new default of dom.indexeddb.enabled=false in FF35 breaks several core functionalities and add-ons
affects 775645 xul-ext-adblock-plus xul-ext-searchload-options xul-ext-tabmixplus
stop

Hi.

One of the upstream authors from Tab Mix Plus found out[0], that the
reason for all these issues is that FF35 changes the value of
dom.indexeddb.enabled to false.
Interestingly, FF claims, that this value would have been "user
set" (but I've never set it to false).

Setting it back to true and all the add-ons as well as the broken FF
core functionalities (i.e. auto-fill for username/password) works again.


Any ideas how to properly deal with this?


Cheers,
Chris.
