Description

[Kohei Yoshino [:kohei]]

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1129624 +++

Reported in #www by Philipp. Those stub installers have no problem in theory, but there are cases people are looking for full installers.

PR coming shortly.

We typically reserve the /firefox/all/ page for full installers, but that's not the case currently.

Will your PR change the windows URLs to non-stub links to d.m.o?

Yes, for English the link would be https://download.mozilla.org/?product=firefox-36.0-SSL&os=win&lang=en-US

Yes. That's the point of this. I think it was an unintended consequence of some recent refactoring that the links on /all/ were changed to stub instead of full installers.

thank you for fixing this. just as general note - we need to provide an easy way for people to get to the full installers for their language because sometimes the stub causes problems: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/firefox?tagged=stub-issue&show=all
