236575 - 'newer build' link is for wrong product

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Bugzilla :: Creating/Changing Bugs, defect)

Description

[Ed Avis]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040206 Firefox/0.8
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040206 Firefox/0.8

The bug reporting page <http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=Firefox>
has a link 'newer build' to
<http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mozilla/nightly/latest/> but that is the
latest nightly build of Mozilla, not Firefox.  The advice on the Firefox bug
reporting page should say where to download a newer build of that product.

Hmm. There isn't really a good page to link to here. This patch fixes
create-guided, but this template has been customised on b.m.o. so there may be
things to fix there too.

This doesn't make any sense.  The text you removed was saying "Don't file
Netscape bugs here.  If you want to report a bug here that you found in
Netscape, you need to reproduce it in Mozilla first."  That statement is still
true no matter what product they're filing in.	You're now turning around and
telling them to reproduce it in a current version of Netscape.	I don't see a
need to change that paragraph.

>Hmm. There isn't really a good page to link to here.

What about http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/latest/ ?

We could switch on product and put the appropriate directory for each one for
the ones we know, and not even include that paragraph for the products where
it's irrelevant.

That would also stop it from telling people reporting Bugzilla bugs that they
need to reproduce their bug in Mozilla. ;)

OK, try this. (It reformats a couple of paragraphs as well, to tidy things up.)
