Remove xul-ext-unity, -webaccounts, -websites-integration from archive

[Bryan Quigley]

Remove it from the archive completely in 15.10+ as the add-ons will be disabled anyway per Firefox signing policies. They may be "zeroed out" on older releases (being handled separately). Mozilla's signing policy will disable these anyway (Fx 42 in December), but might notify the users of the blocked add-ons.

Binary packages: xul-ext-unity, xul-ext-webaccounts, xul-ext-websites-integration
Source packages: unity-firefox-extension, webapps-greasemonkey, webaccounts-browser-extension

These are not in Ubuntu and the only reverse depends should be removed soon (ubuntukylin-desktop)[1] like it was for Ubuntu (standard)[2]

Ideally, for the 15.10 release.

[Didier Roche (didrocks)]

There is no mention of libufe-xidgetter0 coming from unity-firefox-extension. This request isn't clear if everything (including source packages) should be removed.

For instance, webaccounts-browser-extension still ships webaccounts-chromium-extension. So, if that one is still supported, we need to have a new version of webaccounts-browser-extension uploaded to ubuntu with debian/control removing the binaries for the firefox extensions, but keeping the chromium one.

Please get that clarified so that we can move on this bug report.

[David Barth (dbarth)]

webaccounts-browser-extension is deprecated and so is webaccounts-chromium-extension.
