837636 - The install.rdf is not well-formed XML for some langpacks

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 833343

(mozilla.org :: FTP: Staging, task)

Description

[Jan Horak [:jhorak]]

Following langpacks have blank lines before "<?xml version="1.0"?>" declaration:
ar, bn-BD, ca, csb, fa, ff, gd, nso.
which makes install.rdf invalid XML files.

Comment 1

[Jan Horak [:jhorak]]

At least this is valid for xpi files located here:
ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/18.0.2-candidates/build1/linux-x86_64/xpi/

This makes mentioned langpacks unavailable for installation, because during installation they are reported as corrupted.

For example:
ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/18.0.2-candidates/build1/linux-x86_64/xpi/fa.xpi

Error console output:

Error: XML or text declaration not at start of entity
Source File: jar:file:///var/tmp/tmp-wso.xpi!/install.rdf

There is an interesting difference between
http://hg.mozilla.org/l10n-central/fa/file/be5106767e62/browser/defines.inc
and
http://hg.mozilla.org/releases/l10n/mozilla-release/fa/file/33d9b9544b8f/browser/defines.inc

[Mike Hommey [:glandium]]

The emptyLines filter is on central, as seen in comment 2, but also aurora and beta:
http://hg.mozilla.org/releases/l10n/mozilla-aurora/fa/file/ea027d8331b6/browser/defines.inc
http://hg.mozilla.org/releases/l10n/mozilla-beta/fa/file/b9a57c52bbe9/browser/defines.inc

So this was likely fixed by bug 833343
