247209 - map sun4u to Solaris

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Bugzilla :: Creating/Changing Bugs, defect)

Description

[timeless]

The geniuses in the paranoia department won the war over making useragents useless

As a result mozilla/5 has not sent a os major/minor version for several releases.

For people concerned with versions, SunOS and Solaris sort of are different.
from our perspective Solaris probably means Solaris 2.x+ (aka SunOS 5.x+) and
SunOS means SunOS 4.x.

All the hits I'm getting at my web site's host are from SunOS sun4u, and from
the helpful table at:

http://www.ocf.berkeley.edu/solaris/versions/

we can see that sun4u does not support SunOS 4.

This means that I can map SunOS sun4u to Solaris and make some of our
categorization stuff work.

timeless:
You may want to map "sun4us", too (those machines are rarely used as Mozilla
platforms but who knows... :) ...

map sun4u to Solaris

timeless: so it would make sense to regexp it as .*sun4u.* in the light of the
previous comment?

Anyway, this is good and the proposed solution might not be suitable/might go
to another bug. r=vladd but it's ok if you want to repatch.

Roland: the regexp catches that as well (sun4u.* matches sun4us).

I was thinking if we have cases where sun4u appears without the Solaris
identifier (so matching sun4u alone could be a good idea), but that's kinda risky.

OK, I am blind... sorry...

IMHO it's unlikely that someone uses that string outside Solaris... same applies
to sun4m, sun4d, etc. ...

matching w/o sunos would be another bug and i'd require proof.

sun4u could happen on linux or netbsd so i'm not going to just generically map it.
