HTTP auth dialogs don't come up at all in my build, after the password manager landing yesterday. There seem to be two problems here: 1) we no longer decode the old-format passwords 2) HTTP auth dialogs don't come up when password manager fails I'll attach a patch for (1). I've tested that the decoding is correct using dump(), although I haven't gotten the passwords to do anything useful for me.

Comment on attachment 265074 [details] [diff] [review] patch to decode the old-format passwords s/pre-Mozilla-1.0/older/, since apparently that's not quite the case. Looks like wallet can still create entries like this, for people using SeaMonkey.

Should also still fix part (2); I don't have time for either right now.

Test cases to make sure we can handle this format.

(In reply to comment #8) > Created an attachment (id=265472) [details] > Testcase for mime64 encoded passwords Oh, these depend on some changes made in attachment 265468 [details] [diff] [review] for bug 380931. That'll need checked in first... (In reply to comment #7) > pre-Firefox-1.0, right? The comment now just reads "The older file format obscured entries [...]". Since SeaMonkey can still be using this format, it doesn't really matter exactly when Firefox switched.
