827771 - Installing a privileged packaged app does not list privileged webapi permissions in the settings app perms UI until the perm is requested in the app

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Firefox OS Graveyard :: Gaia::Settings, defect, P3)

Description

[Jason Smith [:jsmith]]

Build: B2G 18 1/8/2013
Device: Unagi

Steps:

1. Go to https://marketplace-dev.allizom.org/app/test-webapi-permissions
2. Install the packaged app
3. Go to settings --> app permissions --> Test WebAPI Permissions

Expected:

Geolocation, Pictures Storage, Music Storage, Sdcard Storage, Videos Storage, and Contacts should be listed as permissions with "ask."

Actual:

Only geolocation is listed. Interestingly enough, when any privileged webapi permission is requested in the app and you go back to this UI, the permission will then be listed. Sounds like a bug in the permission installer.

Also a regression - I know I wasn't see this a few days ago.

My first guess would be gaia, I'll dig a bit deeper.

Attachment: patch

We don't have to check the manifest in order to know if the app has a permission or not. The value is enough. When the value is !== unknown and the permission is explicit, we have to display it in settings.

So I just grabbed the build from https://pvtbuilds.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/b2g/nightly/mozilla-b2g18-unagi/latest/ - this isn't working for me.

I'm not even seeing any privileged webapi permissions getting listed, including after the API is used.

Am I running the right build?

Change that. I think I'm running an old build. If I'm wrong, please let me know.
