1369977 - Port Bug 1180921 [ Implement pattern-based whitelisting mechanism for cross-origin XHR] to SeaMonkey Installer

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(SeaMonkey :: Installer, enhancement)

Description

[Frank-Rainer Grahl (:frg)]

Adblock Plus 2.9 is broken in SeaMonkey and Thunderbird. 

When installing the development build I noticed a new error in the log:

> Timestamp: 6/3/2017 10:58:55 AM
> Error: TypeError: Cc['@mozilla.org/addons/policy-service;1'] is 
> undefined
> Source File: resource://gre/modules/ExtensionManagement.jsm
> Line: 144

While it still works we need to add the installer files added in Bug 1180921 to our package-manifest.in. This is also needed for webextensions compatibility. TB and IB already have them in.
