so , will we be able to install it again ?

As far as I know, the answer is no.

BUT,
You can install oSokker by using a previous version of Firefox,
or even better use a portable version of Mozila Firefox only for sokker.

- Portable means: It doesn´t need an installation. It is a zipped (packed) file. It needs to be unpacked and you can store it also on an USB-stick. That´s why it is named potable.
For more information about portables click on this wiki-link.

- I recommend a previous version, 42* or earlier, in order to avoid the block of non-signed extensions, like oSokker.
You can download portable Firefox version 42 or older from these sits:
- http://portable-firefox.soft32.com/old-version/
- https://sourceforge.net/projects/portableapps/files/Mozilla%20Firefox%2C%20Portable%20Ed./
or version 42 from here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/portableapps/files/Mozilla%20Firefox%2C%20Portable%20Ed./Mozilla%20Firefox%2C%20Portable%20Edition%2042.0/


And something out of topic:
The biggest directories of portable applications I know are these:
- here
- here.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
version 42* or earlier because:
- Firefox 40-42: Firefox warns about signatures but doesn't enforce them.
- Firefox 43: Firefox enforces the use of signatures by default, but has a preference that allows signature enforcement to be disabled (xpinstall.signatures.required in about:config).
- Firefox 48: (Pushed from Firefox 46). Release and Beta versions of Firefox for Desktop will not allow unsigned extensions to be installed, with no override. Firefox for Android will enforce add-on signing, and will retain a preference — which will be removed in a future release — to allow the user to disable signing enforcement.

This means, you can use also version 47, but there is some more work to do to avoid the block

ok, but it is only for few week. come soon next mozila version, and again, again....

will be work osokker in new mozila version or do i have use skunk?

It´s for a few weeks. or days, or just a few hours if you update Firefox.
It´s for ever, if you do not update Firefox.

no problem home, but in work must do it.

I do not have a solution for oSokker, but i got SKunk back to work (sort of)

First download firefox unbranded
https://wiki.mozilla.org/Add-ons/Extension_Signing#Unbranded_Builds

then go to about:debugging

then click on load tempory add-on

then find the SKunk addon on your computer (for me it was: C:\Users\xxxx\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\xxxxxx\extensions and load that. You do not see anything happen right then, but it loads.

But.... you have to do that last thing everytime you start firefox. (I have about:debugging as startup page now so it will not take that long. And be aware that you start up the unbranded version of firefox, otherwise it will not work of course :) )

/edit: Another thing, set in about:config about:config app.update.enabled (false) because otherwise there is a bug that will update your unbranded version into the normal version when 49 will gets released.

Solved:
On new FF(48) i makes this changes:

Then i downloaded the 47 version and oSokker from freshest links above...and it work again.
I will never check for updates of FF, so i think, i will ever have oSokker again.

Check this post for oSokker for Firefox 48

One remark - I have never tested it. I just took Chrome port, removed one line, changed version, change another line so the source code thinks that it is Chrome not Firefox (which is good in this case), signed it and then checked if this signed extension may be installed and work after restart and it seems it works. However, I have only checked if players summary is working.

Oh, and so it wasn't so melancholy here is some nice song which stuck in my head
