445918 - DEB install for N8x0 doesn't update correctly

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

Description

[Mark Finkle (:mfinkle) (use needinfo?)]

I tried using the N810 Application Manager to "update" to Fennec 0.5 from Fennec 0.4, but it appears that only Fennec was updated. The previous version of XULRunner was left on the machine. I expected a dependency to updtae the XULRunner too.

In the end, I uninstalled Fennec 0.4 & XULRunner, then installed Fennec 0.5 (which installed XULRunner for me)

adds the buildid to the version number of the xulrunner deb package

+debian/changelog: $(srcdir)/debian/changelog.in 

You should make this:
+debian/changelog: $(srcdir)/debian/changelog.in  $(LIBXUL_DIST)/bin/platform.ini

So that it updates correctly when the milestone changes.

r=me with that change
