309091 - Firefox fails to enable/disable the updates found radio group when enabling/disabling app updates.

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox :: Settings UI, defect)

Description

[Dave Townsend [:mossop]]

In the updates tab of the advanced options, ticking and un-ticking the "Deer
Park" checkbox does not enable/disable the bottom radio group. If the radio
group is enabled and the checkbox is unticked then clicking on the radio buttons
will then disable them.

This works fine on Windows (with instantapply on or off) but not under Linux.

Looking at about:config shows that the preference is being changed correctly
with the checkbox.

That the radio buttons disable when you click on them suggest that the onchange
for the app.update.auto preference is firing. I would expect that the onchange
for app.update.enabled is firing as well which suggests that maybe
updateAppUpdateItems is failing. But nothing gets reported in the javascript
console, and the only thing I can think of failing is the access to the update
service object, which worked when run from the js console.

Still seeing this in the latest trunk builds, but everything looks good on branch.

*sighs* My update script was pulling the old gzip builds instead of the new
bzip2 ones. This works fine in trunk and branch for me. Resolving WFM, and sorry
for the trouble.
