[tlug] NEWBIE Arresting (Arrested?) Development

[CL <az.4tlug@example.com>]

Okay, we're having some fun now.  I just ran the Update that takes 
Kubuntu 7.10 to 8.04.  It took Firefox from v.2.0.0.14 to v.3.0.5b.  A 
WHOLE LOT of extensions and themes have stopped working.  I know the 
developers of a couple (like Moji) and know new versions are on the way, 
but the weird thing is that a whole bunch of things (a number larger 
than "many") that are listed as FF3 compatible, including my selected 
theme, are not being accepted by the compatibility checker.  And they're 
the same things that Iceweasel 2.0.0.13 is rejecting in my shiny new 
Debian install. 

A pattern emerges.  I am not seeing this development in similarly 
numbered WIN versions on my "other" box (I know, I know .. that and a 
cookie will get you ...)

Has anyone else encountered this development and is there a common 
workaround?  The user groups seem to be silent on this, so far.
