--- Comment #17 from Graham Perrin <grahamperrin at gmail.com> ---
Waterfox 56.2.0.13_1
====================

Test results with an almost perfectly clean profile on FreeBSD-CURRENT.

Beginnings at about:addons
--------------------------

Seeking 'Session Boss' finds Session Boss 1.4 uppermost, and the link at the
foot of the page refers to
<https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/search/?q=session%20boss&platform=Linux&appver=56.2.0>
with Session Boss first amongst 200 results. 

☑ 1.4 is truly the most recent version. 

Seeking 'Disconnect' finds Disconnect 5.18.21 uppermost, and the link at the
foot of the page refers to 
<https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/search/?q=disconnect&platform=Linux&appver=56.2.0>
with Disconnect first amongst 31 results. 

☑ 5.18.21 is truly the most recent version

– compare with the outdated, incompatible 3.15.3 that was inadvertently
installed at <https://github.com/MrAlex94/Waterfox/issues/578#issue-325408838>
with Waterfox 56.2.0.13. OOTB 56.2.0.13_1 is significantly better.
