I would like to add the Adblock Latitude add-on in my 64-bits Debian sid Arctic Fox. The one from Pale Moon won't install. Any ideas ?
 
Strange. Thats the version for pm27 that works. Could be the way the 64bit version is built. I don't build any 64bit releases, and am not sure whats enabled/disabled. You could always just use a hosts file in /etc/hosts to block ads. That's what I do, and it blocks ads/malware system wide. No need for a browser extension. I use the one from here: http://winhelp2002.mvps.org/hosts.htm
Just rename HOSTS to hosts and cp to /etc then reboot.

Cheers
