666451 - Find crash reports with incorrect buildids

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

From bug 648022:

I've found something interesting in comparing two crash reports with different build IDs:
Build ID 20110611042006: https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/de2099d9-5809-4c7a-9839-3a7ae2110621
Build ID 20110621042010: https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/d7e991bb-a3ef-4316-a314-dbc312110621

In both cases, the module lists reports a xul.dll with version 6.0.0.4179 and a debug identifier of F0C503A2E6D84C00888AE3CF29B650952.

I'd like to check for this type of mismatch on a larger scale - basically look for xul.dll versions which are associated with more than one buildid, which would indicate a mismatch between application.ini and xul.dll.

When performing the comparison be sure that 64bit Build IDs aren't confused with 32bit Build IDs.

Comment 2

Is this data request still relevant, i.e. does it still need to be done? If not, can you close the bug? Thanks.

Comment 3

I think this would still be useful to know. It's hard to tell whether it's relevant without actually checking.
