1879660 - Support --use-existing-tasks for geckoview

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Release Engineering :: General, task)

Description

[Geoff Brown [:gbrown]]

mach try's --use-existing-tasks feature could be very useful for reducing Fenix build times in try pushes that do not modify geckoview. It almost works, but there is one problem: there is a mismatch in the geckoview name because of the unexpected version:
https://treeherder.mozilla.org/logviewer?job_id=446589068&repo=try&lineNumber=570-577

Everything works if we relax the geckoview version pinning:

Maybe that could be done conditionally, for --use-existing-tasks only, or for try only, or non-shippable builds, or ....?
