There's a bug related to this.¹ Until recently, Firefox with |
| 12 |
USE="bindist" did just result in an unbranded Firefox, but now it |
| 13 |
results in an unbranded Firefox which also behaves significantly |
| 14 |
differently than branded Firefox. I suspect this has to do with |
| 15 |
upstream's move to allowing only Mozilla-signed extensions in branded |
| 16 |
Firefoxes, whereas unsigned extensions will continue to work in |
| 17 |
unbranded Firefoxes,² but I haven't tried to get to the details. |
