2017-05-13propagate upstream updateXZS
The description of this version did not make it clear whether the version is relevant for Linux at all, but for the sake of an up-to-date package, shipping it out cannot hurt.

Besides a small fixup, the compatible version range was adjusted.

It is now compatible with the recent Thunderbird version 52.
2016-11-17restructure paragraphsXZS
To improve readability, related functionality should be kept together, while different section are separated by multiple newlines.
2016-10-31model compatibility by defaultXZS
Despite the information given out via the API, Firefox actually permits installation of some extensions reported incompatible, which then work fine. This is because Firefox' internal mechanism determines that these extensions should be compatible by itself and subsequently refrains from even querying the API to begin with. The version range in the depends array should reflect this. The new condition set models how Firefox and Thunderbird decide compatibility to smoothen future updates.
2016-05-12derive URL from extension nameXZS
The description page for the Add-On follows a similar naming scheme as the download link, so it can be automatically composed, too. Only doing so when the $url is not yet set takes into account that the Add-Ons may get a dedicated web page in the future. The conditional would not be necessary as long as the $url would then be overwritten afterwards. Nonetheless, it allows ordering the PKGBUILD in an usual fashion: Automatic composition of values is semantically more suited to be placed amongst the part of the PKGBUILD where prepare, build, package and related functions are collected while the simple value assignment belongs into the earlier block defining variables.
2016-05-12allow extension name overrideXZS
The advertised title of some extensions differs from the name used in the URL of their page on addons.mozilla.org. Overwriting it allows usage of the template nonetheless.

This ships out many changes accumulated until the major version jump to Thunderbird 45.
2016-04-23do not install version fileXZS
The file is just used to set up package information and relations. It is not needed in the package contents. When included nonetheless, it can cause Firefox to consider the Add-On as signed because of the additional file lacking any checksum or verification. Hiding it effectively excludes it from the installation.
2016-04-23preserve META-INFXZS
Because of a bug in libarchive, extracting the XPI archive through makepkg's automated process leaves the contents of the META-INF directory scrambled. This causes Firefox to reject the activation of the Add-On as long as "xpinstall.signatures.required" is not set to to "false" in "about:config". Unzip preserves the content flawlessly. The underlying bug in libarchive [1] is already fixed, but the changes are not yet shipped out through a release. An Arch Linux bug [2] also tracks the case. This commit shall be reverted as soon as the latter is marked as resolved.

2016-04-22exclude hidden filed in subdirectoriesXZS
Despite the wild card * not coping hidden files, this does not exclude such in subdirectories. A reliable method to exclude files by a pattern like "starting with a dot" would be rsync. But to not pull it in as an additional dependency, copy and find are preferred.
2016-04-20omit hidden filesXZS
Hidden files are normally only used to manage the source code of the extension. They are not needed in and have no direct relation to the compiled package and can thus be left out safely. At this moment, there are no hidden files in this extension. So this change happens just in anticipation to future additions and not raising the need to increment the pkgrel.
2016-03-23remove mksrcinfo headerXZS
This reverts "add mksrcinfo header". The .SRCINFO is now generated by "makepkg --printsrcinfo" which does no longer include any header since commit f63854f [1], released with pacman version 5.0.1. [1]: https://projects.archlinux.org/pacman.git/commit/?id=f63854fa96f658ca5bdf2c21a1cd33cf4e3fbdbd
2015-12-06add mksrcinfo headerXZS
The new version of mksrcinfo released with the recent update to pkgbuild-introspection adds a header to all .SRCINFO files.
2015-10-15ask addons.mozilla.org for updated informationXZS
The addons.mozilla.org API provides updated information about Add-On compatibility more recent than the install.rdf file included in the extension. Restricting package relations according to it yields a wider version range, especially with newer versions.
