It could be really really nice if it was possible to query a unzipped mozilla which buildid it was. I downloaded and unzipped the "mozilla-win32-talkback.zip" but it was impossible to see the buildid version unless I launch the browser and check the titlebar. I'd like a simple buildid file that just contained the buildid number for the mozilla inside the zip file. I use a command line tool for getting the latest nightly build of Mozilla but I cant really tell which build I already have. It should be a simple fix...:)

there's a build.dtd file inside the toolkit.jar file that contains the buildid.

Henrik, in your last comment, are you saying you found something you can use, or are you still requesting something higher-level in the .zip file?

I found the "build.dtd" file. it's in "content\global\build.dtd" inside "chrome\toolkit.jar" and I had to parse it... it still could be nice with a buildid.txt file that only contained the current buildid.
the "build.dtd" has now been removed from toolkit.jar. not sure the reason...?

Mass re-assign of bugs that aren't on the build team radar, so bugs assigned to build@mozilla-org.bugs reflects reality. If there is a bug you really think we need to be looking at, please *email* build@mozilla.org with a bug number and explanation.

This may in fact be a dupe of bug #25646. But since 25646 has an empty cc: list it may be wiser to mark it as a dupe of this one rather than the other way round.

This should be WFM now that there is application.ini, right?
