300031 - "Restart Firefox to use" verbiage shows up when two extensions are in extension manager

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Toolkit :: Add-ons Manager, defect)

Description

[Marcia Knous [:marcia]]

Seen using Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.7.9)
Gecko/20050707 Firefox/1.0.5

STR:

1.  Install a new theme in Firefox.  Then immediately uninstall it.
2.  Find another new theme and install it.  Click on the "Use Theme" icon
3.  Note that both the default them and the new theme both show "restart Firefox
to use" verbiage. Whichever theme is highlighted will be the one that is
installed upon restart.

Went back to 1.0.4 and did not see this behavior in that build.

This is not a problem on Windows.  Following Marcia's steps below, I see the
following behavior:

1. Install a theme and it is added to the theme manager
2. Uninstall theme and it is removed from the theme manager
3. Install another theme and it is added to the theme manager
4. Click Use Theme button and "Restart Firefox..." is displayed.
5. On restart, the new theme is used.

That seems to be the correct behavior.

I can't reproduce the bug as you said but there is a simpler way: If you have
two theme then click Use Theme on both then the "Restart Firefox to use" label
appears on both. I guess the correct behaviour would be that this label only
appears on the last selected one.

I'm not able to reproduce with a current nightly.
