Apparently I cannot install it on FF>33. Not sure if this is a important bug, but it needs to be tracked. I tested it on nightly

hi Gijs and Robert, your JavaScript Debugger add-on seems to be broken with multiprocess Firefox (e10s). If you have any questions about e10s support, just drop by the #e10s IRC channel on irc.mozilla.org or ask Ally on this bug. MDN also has a good introduction:

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Add-ons/Working_with_multiprocess_Firefox
Venkman uses the jsd1 APIs which were removed in Firefox 33. We don't plan on fixing it. Use the builtin browser toolbox instead. :-)

FWIW, this is unrelated to e10s, so I'm removing tracking - leaving it as blocking the tracking bug for now so we don't get dupes - Chris, please remove if that makes more sense.
