Today i tried to install Quote Colors 0.3 on thunderbird.
But i keep hitting the “incompatibility” version problem.
So below my notes on how to “bypass” the Max Version on every mozilla addon xpi.
[~]> cd tmp/
[tmp]> mkdir -pv QuoteColors
mkdir: created directory ‘QuoteColors’
[tmp]> cd !$
cd QuoteColors
[QuoteColors]> wget https://addons.mozilla.org/thunderbird/downloads/latest/170/addon-170-latest.xpi
