As usual the Mozilla team has irritated me with their most recent upgrade to 43. So I am trying to downgrade back to 42 however now I keep getting a message from the package installer that dependencies cant be satisfied. It wont tell me what they are of course but I even tried forcing going back to the 42 version in the package manager (muon) and it wont give me that option. It only shows 43 and 28. I installed gdebi and it just says the package is uninstallable.
I had that once before...I risked it and downloaded a version (from th horse's mouth of course) and ran it in my user space...
Good luck..
BTW - Manjaro has the downgrade script, dunnow if Kubuntu has tht too...

as a backup browser for this computer. It is not too shabby. No full screen video support in youtube. But I have just installed it and not configured it yet in preferences.
there is a plugin, which is much like a hard-copy language reader with serveral build lexicons and dictionaries, which I use on a daily basis. I don't know when the author will get it fixed to work with 43, but until then I want to use it, today, with 42, where it works.
can you help me with that? Like, where to find it and/or how to apply it?
Well, is is a script that seems generic to Arch Linux or Manjaro Linux (and possibly Arch derivates)...nonetheless...Mozilla has a page that explains all...
Basically, running FF in your user space should work nicely...download if, unpack somewhere and run the bin in the folder...
That's what I did, with good results...

thanks for the reply.
In the meantime I already figured that out myself : Using Downgrade
