497876 - annotate known modules based on debug identifier

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Socorro :: General, task, P1)

Description

[Mike Shaver (:shaver -- probably not reading bugmail closely)]

For some things, like common plugins and our own DLLs and so forth, it would be super-great to be able to tell from the details pane what version of Flash someone has installed, etc.  Would also help us spot strange mismatches from mixed Firefox installs and paveover disasters.

Known modules could also float to the top of the display, helpfully, and maybe be available as pickable search criteria?

Debug ID is a little tough, since that changes every single time you link. Also, the modules table went away, so there's no querying on it at the moment.

I bet Flash versions don't link that often, though, and even if we only knew about DLLs from our milestone releases, it'd go a long way.

We can build whatever tables we need for querying, I bet!

This is a Q4 thing, we talked about this.

Obviously wasn't in fact a 2009 Q4 thing ;)

We now have Flash version searchable in supersearch. You can query on modules similarly.

The annotations, etc is covered by Dragnet (bug 577613) which is implemented but not useful at the moment, and is a lower priority right now.

I think this is RESOLVED. Open new more specific bugs for other cases.
