Bug#838902: /etc/firefox/firefox.js: Please remove media.gmp-manager.url.override

[Laurent Bigonville]

Package: firefox
Version: 49.0-3
Severity: normal
File: /etc/firefox/firefox.js

Hi,

It seems that the media.gmp-manager.url.override property defined in
/etc/firefox/firefox.js is interfering with the download of the widevine
runtime.

I know that the DRM are evil, but if a user is clicking the enable
"Play DRM" option he would expect that it just works IMHO.

Same for the cisco H264 codec IMVHO, if the user is explicitly enabling
it, I would say that it should be working.

Cheers,

Laurent Bigonville
