I suspect that’s because of the hacks I had to do so that the uBlock Origin sidebar does not open every time one starts the browser: commit:e945d0c9dd331bf63edc576ace154df4aaff19a1. I’ll take a look! But TBH I don’t think it’s very important and won’t block 3.9 on this.

Reproduced, even without our CSS hacks.

Interestingly, right-clicking somewhere inside this big empty window fixes it. Next step: try to reproduce in a clean Firefox 60 ESR profile on Debian with webext-ublock-origin 1.16.14+dfsg-1 installed; if this can be reproduced there, report the bug against uBlock Origin in the Debian BTS or upstream; otherwise, try to reproduce in a pristine Tor Browser 8.0a10 outside of Tails. No big emergency IMO, feel free to postpone to 3.10 if you want.

Alternatively, or additionally, I could look into hiding the “Open the logger” button so at least we don’t promise anything that won’t work. Do you think it’s worth it? I doubt it.

There’s the same bug (with same workaround) using FF60 and ublock as described on Debian Buster. After a quick look this doesn’t seem already reported, I will in the coming days.

I don’t think it’s worth it.

Excellent, thanks :)

The next step is yours and AFAICT there’s nothing else to do so reassigning.

According to Debian, it’s fixed in ublock-origin 1.17.0+dfsg-3 which is currently available for Sid.

Next steps: test on current devel and if that’s not enough to fix the bug, test with our CSS hacks removed (Bug #16206, can probably be done without building an image: edit userChrome.css in the browser profile and remove everything after “Hide the uBlock sidebar”).

Bug #16206 probably fixed that.

I can’t reproduce this on 3.13.2 :)
