Description

Firebug.next (developer tools extension based on Add-on SDK) wants to switch from CFX to JPM, but there is an exception when launching Firebug+Firefox using JPM:

JPM info Running run on Firebug.next

g.com.xpi (632ms)

Using this command:
jpm run --overload <addon-sdk-path> --binary <firefox-nightly-path>

STR:

1) Clone Firebug.next from: https://github.com/firebug/firebug.next.git
2) Use Add-on SDK branch 'devtools'
3) Go to the Firebug.next directory and use JPM to launch it.

Could it be that the 'devtools' branch isn't updated?
