Hi!

Regularly installed, recently:

$ firefox --version
Mozilla Firefox 70.0

On Devuan (just a non-systemd Debian, 99% plus of packages are Debian):

Seems to be on purpose:
  https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=842292
  In previous versions of libnss, it was possible to use SSLKEYLOGFILE
environment variable to save session keys to a file. Since version
3.24, this is disabled by default at compile time [1].

Thanks, Lee!

I could've guessed something of such kind was the case.

Thing is, I'm pretty happy with Pale Moon, that has custom TLS-logging, and
does it fine, for most of my needs, including internet-banking.

However, CPanel, which I'd need for my pages, and I heard that only very
recently --not verified-- will not, and it's  the choice of their
programmers, work with anything but the big browsers. Pale Moon is just not
supported. Firefox the sole option for me.

And I hate it when I don't see what whoever, just name'em, does their
rummaging in my machines. They all must open up for me, be decryptable. My
machines are my turf, not theirs.

Related, the local Croatian registrar (https://domene.hr, for my NGO's
domain in the signature below) I also learned recently, and learned the hard
way, also does not support anything but the big browsers. Shame! (I'm sure
it's kind of global trend for other countries' registrars.)

So, learn how to get my Firefox --when I need it-- log the keys, or live in
the dark on what it lets other subjects do in my machines.

This will take time, and I do not have it right now...

I don't know if the official builds
  https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/
will log the keys or not, but maybe worth trying?

Lee
