[Libreoffice-bugs] [Bug 118881] Personas not found again (seems root cause is different than tdf#114731)

--- Comment #25 from Muhammet Kara <muhammet.kara at pardus.org.tr> ---
What I have by taking a quick look:

- There is no problem with the API part (The API we use is indeed deprecated
but still functional, the API change of mozilla is something different (not
related to our use case) AFAIK)
- Seems like there has been some change on the design of the individual
persona/theme pages on AMO (addons.mozilla.org) which causes our parser methods
to fail

I can quickly cook up a patch to make our Personas search feature operational
again, but we better think about a way to improve this feature overall, and
make it future-proof. Mozilla might make design changes anytime again which
breaks things on our side.

Random thoughts:
- Select a small set of personas (maybe 10 or 20?), and ship them with LO
- Include an index file for a larger set of Personas, which might be updated by
a script time to time (maybe getting most-downloaded 100 (or 1000?) Personas),
and perform the searches on this set of Personas.
