Bug Description
Binary package hint: ubufox
This is quite annoying, we cannot customize system wide settings via the prefs in /etc/firefox/
/<email address hidden>
Since the extensions are loaded after the system preferences.
The most significant of these for us would be the
pref("network.
Setting. I want that to be our domain not https:// and it is impossible to change via the system wide configuration due to the override in ubufox.
Please move all the pref overrides out of an extension and put them in proper pref files loaded before the system pref files.

as a workaround we should provide a file in /etc/firefox- 3.0/pref that gets linked to the ubufox preference directory in such a way that changing the pref in the /etc/ file overwrites what ubufox sets by default.
