307567 - Focus problems with software update compatibility checker...

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 307569

(Toolkit :: Application Update, defect)

Description

[Jay Patel [:jay]]

While testing what appeared to be a hang problem with checking extensions
compatibility, I realized there is a focus problem on Linux that make the dialog
appear to hang.

My steps:

1. Install 1.0.6
2. Install a few extensions (AdBlock and Gmail Notifier were the ones I tried)
3. Restart 1.0.6 and make sure the extensions were installed correctly.
4. Shutdown 1.0.6
5. Install 1.5 Beta 1 build (or nightly branch)
6. On startup, software update will start checking the extensions compatibility.
7. If you stay focused on the Firefox Update dialog, it will appear as if it's
hung (although if you look at the terminal console, it will say that it is done).
8. If you change the focus to another window and the back to Firefox, the check
will finish and Firefox will start.

Seems like a annoying bug, but don't think it's a blocker.  Although we should
try to get this fixed asap.

This is a Linux only issue from what I can tell.  Haven't seen this on Mac or
Windows.
