669092 - Aurora check for updates result isn't clear

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Will Pittenger]

Attachment: Did it find an update or not (note: I fixed app.update.url.manual)

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.0; WOW64; rv:5.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/5.0
Build ID: 20110615151330

Steps to reproduce:

I have the latest Aurora (as of today, 6.0a2).  I figured I might as well have it check for new versions of Aurora.  However, it wasn't clear about whether there was a new version.  All I see is a link to the update site.  It should either state that an update was found or you have the latest version.  My test on on Ubuntu 32-bit 11.04.


Actual results:

The check for updates result isn't clear.


Expected results:

The check should either report Update found or You have the latest version.

Actually, I get the same results even when there is definitely a newer Aurora.  So I think the update check just isn't working.

No idea.  I haven't used Aurora in years.  These days, my main browser on a desktop is Pale Moon.  I sometimes keep a Beta around on Android, but for testing only.
