CanvasBlocker support for K75?

Would love it if K-Meleon could support CanvasBlocker:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/canvasblocker/

Judging by its compatible version, it says it supports all the way down to Firefox v26.

Activate the plugin and go to about:addons, then go to the CanvasBlocker options page.

On the page, I've set Block Mode to "fake readout API." This means that canvas fingerprint signatures should be random instead of being unique.

In Firefox, this works correctly. In K-Meleon, it doesn't. Try it out here:
browserleaks.com/canvas/.

Would be great if this addon worked!

Hey guys, how did you get this extension to install? Every time I try I get the message that it cannot be installed because it is incompatible.

I've tried editing the install.rdf file, tried disable_add_on_compatibility_checks extension, and the Nightly-tester-tools extension but same result every time.

Please let me know what you did.
Thank you

Have you preference kmeleon.install_firefox_extension present in about:config and set to true?

I did not know it existed! But I have since added it and can now install the extension - Thank you!

But it still seems like the extension does not block the canvas API because the web page still shows it: http://browserleaks.com/canvas/

Has anyone been able to get it working?
