| Issue 444: | FF install affects all profiles on Windows, but not on Mac or Linux | |
| Back to list |
Thanks to Ruchi for noticing this difference in behavior. If Mac and Linux have a way to install for all FF profiles launched from the current OS login, we should consider using that. Otherwise, when we support more browsers on Linux and Mac, we may need per-browser installs instead of cross-browser installs. (Installing for a 2nd FF profile becomes weird if we don't do this.) |

You definitely can do it via an OS-level installer, like we do in Windows. You might also able to do something via the install.js APIs: http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Learn_XPI_Installer_Scripting_by_Example |

I didn't think Mac/Linux FF had an equivalent to the Windows regkey. http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Adding_Extensions_using_the_Windows_Registry Would be cool if there is one, though. |
