267659 - Double program entry in Add/Remove programs panel

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 247884

(Firefox :: Installer, defect)

Description

[Martin]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040913 Firefox/0.10
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040913 Firefox/0.10

Installer a later version of Firefox (and Thunderbird too - should I submit
another bug for it?) creates a new entry in the Add/Remove Programs panel,
without removing the old entry.

So, when I installed Firefox 1.0PR, I now have two entries:

Mozilla Firefox (0.9.0+)
Mozilla Firefox (1.9PR)

[I also have two Thunderbird ones after upgrading today:

Mozilla Thunderbird (0.7.3)
Mozilla Thunderbird (0.9)
]

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:



Expected Results:  
The Installer should remove old entries from the Add/Remove Programs panel.

Pah! Am sure I searched for a duplicate! Oh well. :-)

Is this fixed for Thunderbird though? Should I open a new bug for Thunderbird
0.9 (for which it definitely isn't fixed - I just tested that) or can I reopen
this bug and change it to a Thunderbird-only bug?

Firefox and Thunderbird use the same installer code. So no new bug necessary.
