534596 - No updates available for RC1 beta users

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Mozilla Messaging Graveyard :: Release Engineering, defect, P1)

Description

[Mark Banner (:standard8)]

My wife's PC is Linux and she's using RC 1 (en-GB), there's no updates available even when manually checking for updates (this is on the beta channel).

AUS url:

https://aus2.mozillamessaging.com/update/3/Thunderbird/3.0/20091117133512/Linux_x86-gcc3/en-GB/beta/Linux%202.6.22.17-0.1-default%20%28GTK%202.12.0%29/default/default/update.xml?force=1

(typed in manually via copy across screens, so hope I got it right!).

There's no en-US as well.

I guess this might explain why our RC1 numbers were still quite high last week ;-)

TB 3.0 RC1's build id should be 20091121...

From the build id that's not RC1 final, but RC1 build 2

Unreleased RC builds will not be offered updates, as they were not released.
