Package: firefox
Version: 58.0~b4-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Dear Maintainer,

When I updated my system, I got firefox 57. It does appear
to work faster. But, I noticed that the sites I frequent, do not
display the text: distrocwatch.com, slashdot.org, gmail, etc. Removed
$HOME/.mozilla and checked again. Same problem :-(

The screenshots can be seen here:

Anyone else facing a similar problem?

If it matters, except uBlock, I do not have any other extensions. Even
with the extension removed, the behaviour is the same.

I tried finding a solution on debian-user, and found no answer.

As per one of the suggestions, I tried a localhost page also. Same
proble: no text :-(

Regards,
