623128 - Validation fails with "Error: Version "3.6.12" isn't compatible with "firefox"."

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(addons.mozilla.org Graveyard :: Developer Pages, defect)

Description

[krupa raj[:krupa]]

Attachment: install.rdf

steps to reproduce:
1. Upload an add-on file which has the following compatibility info in install.rdf
<em:minVersion>1.5</em:minVersion>
<em:maxVersion>3.6.12</em:maxVersion>

expected behavior:
Validation passes

actual behavior:
Validation fails with the following error

Error: The maximum version that was specified is not an acceptable version number for the Mozilla product that it corresponds with.
Error: Version "3.6.12" isn't compatible with "firefox".

3.6.12 is not explicitly listed @ https://addons.allizom.org/en-US/firefox/pages/appversions/, but why should validation fail because the user lists a valid but specific version of Firefox?

Because it doesn't exist.  Should we accept Firefox 17.2 as well?
