As of Firefox version 20, the addon Skip-Cert-Error (which is a rewrite
of 'MitM Me') doesn't work anymore. In fact there were some changes made
in ffox in regards to the private-browsing-mode, which made the current
0.3.3 version incompatible.
Luckily the developer also has its own GIT-repository at
github, and there was also a
change recently (commit
7ee2458033819b1a3f0e74c1afadbc3e3922a898)
which fixes this incompatibility. Strange indeed, that there's not a
newer version on addons.mozilla.org yet.
Anyway, I cloned the git-repository, compiled the code, installed in
firefox, and voilĂ , everything back to normal, the plugin works again!
Here are the steps needed to compile it from GIT:
cd /tmp git clone git://github.com/foudfou/skipCertError.git cd /tmp/skipCertError/src make build ls -lah ../build/skipcerterror@foudil.fr-0.3.4.xpi
or you can quickly download my precompiled 'binary' here (skipcerterror@foudil.fr-0.3.4.xpi).
Thanks to foudfou who coded this valuable plugin!
Cheers
