485783 - French version of the whatsnew page always says that the 3.0.x version is the latest

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(www.mozilla.org :: General, defect)

Description

[Eric Bollengier]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Konqueror/3.5; Linux) KHTML/3.5.10 (like Gecko) (Kubuntu)
Build Identifier: Firefox/3.0.8, Firefox/3.0.7, Firefox/3.0.6, Firefox/3.0.5, Firefox/3.0.4, Firefox/3.0.3, Firefox/3.0.2, Firefox/3.0.1

The french version of the whatsnew page doesn't indicate this information :

"For security reasons, we recommend downloading the latest and greatest
version."

Instead, i have always "You’ve been updated to the latest version of Firefox." which is wrong.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. open firefox
2. go to http://fr.www.mozilla.com/fr/firefox/3.0.1/whatsnew/
3. go to http://fr.www.mozilla.com/fr/firefox/3.0.2/whatsnew/
etc..
Actual Results:  
I get
"Vous avez installé la dernière version de Firefox." (You’ve been updated to the latest version of Firefox. in english)

Expected Results:  
I should have
"Pour des raisons de sécurité, nous vous recommandons de télécharger la dernière version." (For security reasons, we recommend downloading the latest and greatest version. in english)

Whatsnew pages aren't Releng, moving to a more appropriate component.

justr tested, invalid. Version detection works.

Just a bit strange, the english version of the whatsnew page saids 
(http://en-us.www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/3.0.4/whatsnew/)
"For security reasons, we recommend downloading the latest and greatest version."

The french one (and for example the german too) is saying
"Thanks for your time! This update will make you safer on the web."
for all versions... (from 3.0.0 to 3.0.11)

The english version says that only of the latest one (currently 3.0.11), it
seems to be the right thing to do to inform users about security problems.

This is just the text that is wrong, not the version detection or any technical
problem.
