659702 - jetpack buildbot failing, run_jetpack.sh is fetching multiple firefox installers

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 649846

(Add-on SDK Graveyard :: General, defect)

Description

[Brian Warner [:warner :bwarner]]

The jetpack buildbot started failing in exciting ways yesterday, probably when the new Aurora (FF7) became available.

http://tinderbox.mozilla.org/showlog.cgi?log=Jetpack/1306339882.1306339923.12308.gz&fulltext=1

It looks like run_jetpack.sh is downloading multiple FF installer tarballs:

 firefox-6.0a1.en-US.linux-i686.tar.bz2
 firefox-7.0a1.en-US.linux-i686.tar.bz2

and then it's doing something fragile like "tar xf *.tar.bz2", which fails since there are multiple files.

There's gotta be a better way to identify which FF tarball is the right one.. is there some sort of pointer or "current release" file that it could fetch first? Otherwise we're going to have a problem like this every 6 weeks as a new aurora/beta is published.
