Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(Core Graveyard :: Installer: XPInstall Engine, defect, P3)

Description

[David Epstein]

Mac only. build 2000-03-24-05-M15-n1b1.
1. remove any Mozilla builds and "Mozilla Versions" from Preferences.
2. Install Mozilla build.
3. In 4.7, use BiggerRegToy. Enter reg file pathway in the field and press "Open 
Registry File" (i.e. "Macintosh HD:System Folder:Preferences:Mozilla Versions"). 
Then verify that "Mozilla" app node is created under mozilla.org.
4. Quit 4.7
5. Trigger xpi in Mozilla (say a_addtestfile, a_adddelfile, etc.).
6. Launch 4.7 again and use BiggerRegToy.
Result: "Mozilla #2 node" created under mozilla.org. Package node is created 
there as well.
Expected: Package node posted to "Mozilla" app node. Mozilla #2 shouldn't be 
created.

changed QA contact and added keyword.
One finer subtlety. If we quit Mozilla in step 4 (in addition to quitting 4.7), 
then package node of the first triggered xpi will appear. If we don't quit 
Mozilla, it does not.

This is no longer a problem.  The expected behavior is observed.  Worksforme.
