535084 - BuildStep "cat toolkit.jar" pollutes log and confuses error parser

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Release Engineering :: General, defect, P2)

Description

Takes up a huge amount of space in the log and triggers the error summary since the word "Error" appears several times:

              var msg = "Error: Cannot open a " + uri.scheme + ": link using \
  onError: function(event)
    onError: function(request, update) {
  onDatasourceError: function pfs_onDatasourceError (aPluginRequestItem, aError) {
  onError: function(aSink, aStatus, aErrorMsg) {

cat'ing the jar is a little...nuts. You could use unzip -c to unzip buildconfig.html to stdout, something like:
unzip -c ..chrome/toolkit.jar content/global/buildconfig.html | grep whatever
