This bug was filed 3 minutes after the snippet for this morning's nightly became available; certainly a small enough window that I suspect that you were checking before the nightly was available to update to.

Can you try again?

I'm on 2012-07-06 and getting "no updates available" too.

1. I've moved the old snippets from july6-july7 inclusive away.  This should eliminate any variables in the old snippets, and just use this morning's.

2. July 6 was the day that armv6 Android nightlies were enabled with updates.  I'm digging to see if this is causing any conflicts in the snippet generation code.

3. We had 2 nightlies for m-c android armv7 native last night.

The first died during the multilocale steps and didn't create snippets, so I think we can rule that out.

I respun the nightly.

is giving me a valid url, buildid, size, and sha512.

Still a problem?

Ok, this is a regression from bug 767864. My m-c Native Fennec on Tablet makes a request like this:

https://aus2.mozilla.org/update/4/Fennec/16.0a1/20120706075126/Android_arm-eabi-gcc3-/en-US/nightly/Linux%202.6.36.3/default/default/16.0a1/update.xml?force=1

The trailing dash on Android_arm-eabi-gcc3- is the problem. I've added a symlink on the update server to work around this, and successfully updated to the latest nightly.
