Make Pipelight great again ... for a last time

Asked by Benoît Dufour

Hello, we are now in February 2017 and firefox browser version is 51.0.1, and in March, the next firefox version will drop the support of NPAPI . So I will still use the Firefox 51.0.1 on Linux. But there's a small problem I encountered on Pipelight. According to the logs of firefox in the console, Pipelight is **unable to download** some plugins installers (even before and after I had reinstal firefox to make tests on Pipelight). In fact the only plugin I was able to download with it was Microsoft Silverlight (I was able to use it, but it doesn't work anymore since I reinstalled Firefox, it made everything mess up). So I'm just asking to the team to make one last update to Pipelight to make it able to download Unity3D, 64x-Unity3D, and others plugins (and to fir the bug with Silverlight). Also remember that even if the next firefox will drop out support of NPAPI, it will not be the smae thing with SIlverlight and other great plugins that doesn't need NPAPI to work.
Thanks
