293784 - app.update.url points to wrong host

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Toolkit :: Application Update, defect)

Description

[Colin Ogilvie [:cso]]

Per discussion with justdave on IRC:

<Colin> althoguh, my firefox says both are update.mozilla.org
<justdave> Colin: what version of Firefox are you running?
<Colin> 1.0.3, which started off as 1.0
<justdave> please file a bug on that
<justdave> the update url should be addons.mozilla.org for extensions/themes and
aus.mozilla.org for the app update


This seems to be the case on the branch l10n lxr and some of the ones on trunk.

I think we're too late in the game to block 1.0.4 on this.  The security fix in
1.0.4 is more important than fixing the load distribution on our servers.

[Daniel Veditz [:dveditz]]

Both update.properties and extensions.properties were updated to the correct
hosts in 1.0.1; the trunk is correct as well.

Is this actually an l10n bug? If so it should be filed against the localizations
with the problem.

I believe there was a conscious decision not to fix the l10n update URL.

Closing out bugs in the old style updater, which are superseded by the new system
in 1.5.
