So I noticed this and wanted to test:
Clean profile:

Hi @jtagcat , how do you achieve it?

Hi @jtagcat , how do you achieve it?

Normal installation, as described in readme.

[olaims]

When I try it I get this

[jtagcat]

Did you try changing the mentioned about:config variables?

If yes, you might have an old profile.

[olaims]

I've deleted and created a new firefox profile, and same error.

[jtagcat]

Did you try changing the mentioned about:config variables?

Did you?

Also did you use the profile manager? What version of browser?

[olaims]

the about:config variables are as the readme says.

I used about:profiles to create a new profile and to try to install the paxmod from there.

The version of the browser is 75.0

[jtagcat]

I'm on latest, 74.0.1 (64-bit). Will see what happens when the next update reaches me.

[jtagcat]

I did some developer magic and got myself 75. It seems that paxmod does not work on 75. I suspect, that paxmod working on 74 might've been a bug (from browser security perspective), I'll look in to it.

Also with my research, I'll note that need to do PR to mention that ESR is supported as well.

I'll also look in to, if we can sign this outside of AMO, removing the requirement of xpinstall.signatures.required = false

[jtagcat]

Confirmed. Security bug, only works in stable 74. Branching other discussion in to new issues.

Thanks @olaims for pointing this out.
