Two options:
1) Generate these by hand in the objdirs
2) Only serve completes in ESR 17.0.1.

Recommending the latter because there won't be that many users on ESR 17.0.

We also need to fix the root cause, of course!

Attachment: enableUpdatePackaging always for releases

It turns out that enableUpdatePackaging is set to False when releaseconfig doesn't set verifyConfigs :/

I believe we always want this set to True.

Still need to figure out a good way to generate mars and update checksums files and signatures...

I disabled the following slaves to investigate this issue:

Firefox
* linux64-ix-slave13
* linux-ix-slave24
* w64-ix-slave07
* bld-lion-r5-062

Thunderbird
* linux64-ix-slave04
* mv-moz2-linux-ix-slave06
* bld-lion-r5-054

I generated en-US mar files, signed them internally (mar signature), externally (gpg), updated per-platform checksums files, gpg signed them, regenerated SUMS files and gpg signed them.

The details are in the corresponding build notes for Firefox and Thunderbird.
