You're not lucky, with the 1.0 package that just got uploaded to unstable, your package is useless, 'cause support for /var/lib/mozilla-firefox/chrome.d has been dropped. Anyways, I'd suggest to make a multi-binary package so that it produces several mozilla-firefox-locale-* packages. As for how to make the thing work with new firefox package, I'm working on an HTML version of what I sent to extensions packages maintainers 2 days ago about the new scheme. I'll send the URL here when it's done. In the meanwhile, you can still guess what's going on by taking a look at extensions and locales available in http://glandium.org/debian/unstable/. Mike
