This tracks not building or installing fennec_ids.txt in mobile/android/base; not uploading it during packaging; removing the generation script; and not pushing it to device in runtestsremote.py.  There might be more!
See also prerequisite mozharness patch and additional notes from Bug
969926.

gbrown: not sure if you or jmaher are the correct person for this, but
I'd like you both to be aware of these changes.

Remove fennec_ids.txt from build system. r=jmaher

-----------------------------------------------------------------

no red flags here- I am concerned that talos might fail if you do this.
r=me if you run this on try and do talos tests which don't fail because of this.

This all looks good. Be on the lookout for unforeseen breakage -- try or maybe a trial on the ash tree is probably essential.

Bug 969925 - Generate an empty fennec_ids.txt. r?gbrown

Automation and some third-party tooling expects fennec_ids.txt, but an
empty file should suffice.

gbrown: the back-story here is that I had r+ for removing more and then discovered dependencies in automation.  This does less, but works around a problem sebastien and I witneseed in Bug 1171288.  Let's see what try says!

leave-open since there's more we should do for this ticket.

can you refresh my mind on how robocop will work?  I am mostly concerned about talos.

We previously used fennec_ids.txt in FennecNativeDriver/FennecNativeElement, but that changed with bug 969926, primarily http://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/d3e11d7ae99d. I think we are free of fennec_ids.txt now!

Correct.  We have no need for fennec_ids.txt /in tree/; we pass it around (using --robocop-ids and friends) still, but we shouldn't.  What we still have is automation looking for it, and some external consumers using it as a marker of some sort.
