557583 - Update SeaMonkey to newer AUS URL scheme

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(SeaMonkey :: Release Engineering, defect)

Description

[Robert Kaiser]

As bug 556564 comment #11 and later mention, we're still using version 1 of the AUS update URL scheme, but need to switch to at least version 2 (in 2.0.x!) to be able to correctly deprecate Tiger and not upgrade those users to 2.1 later on.

Our current pref lives at http://mxr.mozilla.org/comm-central/source/suite/browser/browser-prefs.js#417 - compare to the Firefox one living at http://mxr.mozilla.org/comm-central/source/mozilla/browser/app/profile/firefox.js#125

We probably don't need the distribution stuff introduced in version 3 atm, but it probably also doesn't do any harm.

That's for one part of this, yes, but I don't care much about the patches that changes this elsewhere, really. I know what to do anyhow.

Not blocking a3 on it but we should try and get it in for a beta, also need to get it into 2.0.x

Attachment: go to v3 right away

This patch makes us go to v3 directly - we don't really support the "distribution" infrastructure in SeaMonkey well at the moment, but adding that makes us future-proof on the updates. I have updates the aus2-community server to current code in the last few months, so I'm sure it has picked up what it needs for that.

go to v3 right away

r+a+=me, provided we have confirmation that aus2 on the community site supports format 3 already.
