This addon barely functions in Seamonkey 2.38, a fix is heavily needed.

Greetings, My name is Matt A. Tobin and I am a contributing developer and Addons site Administrator for the Pale Moon project. I am writing this bug post to inform you that the Pale Moon browser (originally and historically forked from Firefox) has changed it's GUID. Though we have made modifications to allow Firefox addons to install with the Firefox GUID this change does not cover the Application XUL Overlays that allow your addon to address many Gecko based applications.

While we are preserving the Pre-Australis UI and continuing down our road of independent development this change has partly crippled your addon. The modifications to your install.rdf and chrome manifest files are minor and it would be appreciated if you would support Pale Moon out of the box as the growing number of users in the community using Pale Moon steadily increases.

More information can be found here: https://forum.palemoon.org/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=5440

If you have any additional questions please contact us either via this bug, our forums, or my self by email.

Thank you for your time and consideration!

Peace,

Matt A. Tobin

Error: TypeError: this.mControl is undefined
Source File: chrome://oam/content/extensions.xml
Line: 248

The line in question:
248: else if (this.mControl.mAddon.install)

Seems as if an API change has, perhaps, removed or renamed the mControl variable. Not sure if you're still working on this, Exalm. If not, I will try to google around in search for a fix.
