uninstall is not part of beta 1 requirement

Comment 3

[Cathleen]

is this bug still valid?

I don't think we're going to use registry for uninstall info, do we?

Comment 4

[Daniel Veditz [:dveditz]]

It won't go into the thing called a registry, but we still have to store this 
information somewhere.

Comment 9

[Pete Boyd]

circular dependency: this bug blocks bug 7884, and is also blocked by bug 7884

Comment 10

[Braden]

This apparently does not block bug 7874, bug 11020, bug 12805, and bug 96409,
since those have all been resolved.

Comment 11

[Braden]

The scope of this bug is not clearly articulated; but it seems like it ought to
be blocked by bug 161508.

Comment 13

[Daniel Veditz [:dveditz]]

The xpinstall script engine has been removed from the trunk, bugs in it are obsolete.
