What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Install Firefox 6, on OSX 10.7 2. Install modified hybridfox 1.7.000089 with install.rdf max version at 6.* 3. Restart Firefox 6. 4. Tools / Hybridfox option is missing

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Tools / Hybridfox option should be available and launch the Hybridfox Plugin.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Please provide any additional information below.

I have not tried the latest development code, but the current production level plugin doesn't seem to work.

I compiled the latest source yesterday on 1.6 and it worked just fine by changing the max install version to 6.*. 7 on the other hand doesn't work, it never shows up in tools.

@devops.android can you try putting the maximum version to * , and test it. It works fine with all versions,but the question is? is that the legal way of specifying the max versions.

It lets you install it just fine, it just never shows up in tools. It's 'enabled' under addons with 1.7 with the max version , 8., 9., 6. whatever.

@michaeldjoy I just checked with all versions of FX with HF,May be some problem with your FX settings i think. This is screenshot of FX-7 with HF 1.7

Odd, then why does 1.6 show up under 6 and not 1.7? It may be mac specific. I will try reinstalling 1.7 again on another 10.7 mac and see if the issue re-occurs. Is there plan for a new main line release with 6 configured to work out of the box?

Installed Hybridfox 1.7.000089 under Ubuntu 11.04 on Firefox 6. Got it installed using the Mozilla Addon Compatibility Reporter. It doesn't show up under "Tools" on 6 under Ubuntu either.
