1180269 - Firefox 39.0 missing language packs

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(addons.mozilla.org Graveyard :: Administration, defect)

Description

[g633]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:39.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/39.0
Build ID: 20150630154324

Steps to reproduce:

Updated from Firefox 38.0.5 to Firefox 39.0 on several machines using localized language packs


Actual results:

Firefox reported that the language packs are not available for 39.0


Expected results:

If 39.0 language packs are not available:

 - Warn during upgrade that language packs are not ready

 - Offer to continue using old language packs--this would be MUCH BETTER than losing all localization (for indefinite future), do you not think?

Nick, any idea what is going on here? Perhaps this is an amo bug?

Does look like an AMO issue. eg https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/english-gb-language-pack/ has 38.0.5, but http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/39.0/win32/xpi/ has the usual set of files. Perhaps just related to the delayed shipping.

The lang pack upgrade process was run last week, but I guess it didn't work. Kris, can you look into this?

I noticed the 38.0.5 language packs release date is for last friday, so I guess the upgrade process that took place released those instead of the 39.0 ones?

AMO still thinks that 38.0.5 is the current release, so that's what I ran.
