Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Toolkit :: Add-ons Manager, defect)

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8b4) Gecko/20050908 Firefox/1.4

Upon upgrading to Beta1 from Deer Park Alpha 2, many extensions and themes were
disabled. Assuming this is correct, even though many say they worked through
Deer Park, of which FF 1.5 Beta 1 is still listed as, the disabled message
within the Extension Manager lists them as incompatible with FireFox 1.4. Being
as this is FF1.5 Beta 1, it should list them as disabled as incompatible with FF
1.5 B1, not 1.4.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
None. Just open the extension manager.
Actual Results:  
Once again displays an incompatibility with 1.4.

Expected Results:  
Displaying incompatibility with 1.5 beta 1, the actual installed software.

While the about information of FF1.5 Beta 1 does list the current software to be
version 1.5 Beta 1, it also lists 1.4 at the bottom as the version, which means
perhaps the whole version isn't listed as expected.

The internal version number for beta1 is "1.4" and beta2 will be "1.4.1" (or
perhaps "1.4.2"). This is by design. There are other bugs on separating the
displayed version number from the internal version number.
