179651 - Default theme Modern, not Classic since Nov 8

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 180984

(SeaMonkey :: Themes, defect)

Description

[Boris Zbarsky [:bzbarsky]]

PROBLEM PRESENT IN: Linux trunk build 2002-11-08-21 and thereafter

PROBLEM NOT PRESENT IN: Linux trunk build 2002-11-07-21 or before

STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
1)  Start browser
2)  Look at the default theme being used (for the browser or profile manager)

EXPECTED RESULTS: Theme is classic

ACTUAL RESULTS: Theme is modern

Assigning this to build config, since this is most likely caused by one of the
version number update things...

> bz: How exactly does a version number update thingy trigger a change in the
+default theme?
<bz_sleep> cls: no clue, but the last time this bug happened there was some
+sort of version mismatch somewhere that caused classic to be rejected as a
+valid theme..
<bz_sleep> cls: I have no clue as to the details, unfortunately
<bz_sleep> cls: perhaps ccing some people who do have such clue would be a
+good idea, but I'm not even sure who those are...

This is the first I've heard of this.  Bouncing it over to themes.

I definitely verified that adding back in the forms.jar stuff to
installed-chrome.txt fixes it.

I've no idea why. I'll try to do some more looking.
