2004-07-26 Branch builds are horked

  • Fixed: 252549 - Better Update Handling for identical versions.
  • Fixed: Make the find field look like a Luna text field on XP.
  • Fixed: 248215 - Crash importing IE settings.
  • Fixed: 251308 - Don't fail to start firefox if write to extensions directory fails.
  • Fixed: 59557 - Permissions should not be world-readable for profile directory.
  • Fixed: 213963 - Cookies get lost after a huge number of cookies is reached.
  • Fixed: 13 more core fixes from trunk, mostly related to cookies.
  • Since July 26: 253118 - Cookies don't work; Privacy Options broken.
  • Since ~March 15 or ~June 8: 246078 - URLs from other apps result in Firefox opening the first hit on Google for "StartDDE" (which is now The Burning Edge).

I did not link to nightly builds because of bug 253118. Windows users can download sweetlou hourly builds with the bug fixed.

    Cookies don’t work in sweetlou’s hourly builds either. I can’t log in to Yahoo! Mail or hotmail with the build!

    Hopefully tomorrow’s build will be better — good things seem to be happening in bug 246078 as well:

    Hehe…that startdde thing that’s been happening since the other day now opens right here to The Burning Edge. It seems you’ve outranked IBM, Jesse. :)

    Yep, that was my intention in using the term “StartDDE” in my descritpion of the bug.

    The Mac 20040726 build on mozilla.org doesn’t seem to suffer from this problem. The usual sites — including the Webmail sites noted about — work without incident.

    246078 was a big blocker for me, I’ll be downloading tomorrow’s build, although I wouldn’t mind being sent here all the time. :p

    A PDF is no longer the first search result in Google for StartDDE.

    I’m personally looking forward to Google’s July Zeitgeist. Will “StartDDE” inexplicably show up on the list of most-searched terms?
