FEBE freezes in Waterfox 56.0

[bege]

With Waterfox 55 FEBE was working, after updating to Waterfox 56.0 FEBE freezes, sometimes already when trying to open the preferences, sometimes within the preferences window.

I cannot duplicate this. I upgraded to Wf v56.0.1 and FEBE works as expected for me.

Are you getting any FEBE related errors in the Browser Console (Ctrl-Shift-J, filter for 'febe'). If so, please copy/paste them in your reply.

I recently have installed Linux Mint parallel to Windows 7 on my notebook. I am back on Windows at the moment and FEBE works correctly. The trouble was on Linux. As written only after updating to FF 56. I cannot test Linux today, I will come back to this topic after I've done.

Can confirm that this is occurring in Linux Mint 18.3 with Waterfox 56.0.1.

Hope there will be a fix somehow - FEBE is the one of the most important add-ons to Firefox/Waterfox.

I installed Linux Mint 18.3 64bit ('Sylvia') on a virtual machine then installed Waterfox v56.0.1. I experienced the same problem - FEBE hangs when opening options. There are no messages in the error console to debug.

The problem is most likely with Waterfox 56. Another user with Mac High Sierra 10.13.1.
