viraldiegoHi folks, I'm using debs from https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-mozilla-daily, which still have the version as 4.0b13pre. This is causing a bit of confusion (see https://github.com/kazu-yamamoto/Firemacs/pull/7), does anyone here know whether these builds will come with a version >= 4.0 anytime soon? Or should I switch to the ppa at http://is.gd/f6TM4? Cheers.08:26
chrisccoulsonviraldiego, whenever the version on mozilla-central changes08:48
viraldiegoOk thanks, so I'm guessing that'd be around the time of the final 4.0 release is that correct?08:52
magciuschrisccoulson, didn't it already switch to an RC?08:57
chrisccoulsonmagcius, no, that was done on the mozilla-2.0 branch08:57
magciuschrisccoulson, ah.08:58
magciuschrisccoulson, I assume that's stable, whereas -central is still dev?08:58
* magcius would have figured that -central would have version bumped after RC.08:58
chrisccoulsonmagcius, yeah. we're going to rename the firefox-4.0 packages in the PPA to firefox-trunk, and that will make it clear that they are always coming from mozilla-central08:58
chrisccoulson(and will avoid having to rename them every few weeks too)08:59
magciuschrisccoulson, why not 'mozilla-cenrtal'?09:00
magciuser, central09:00
magciusoh wait, firefox != xulrunner09:00
* magcius is always annoyed at that09:00
chrisccoulsonmaybe, but that's a bit of a long name09:00
chrisccoulsonfirefox-mozilla-central ;)09:01
magciusfirefox-hg ?09:01
chrisccoulsonhmmm, that could mean any of the 4 branches in http://people.mozilla.com/~sayrer/2011/temp/process.html then09:01
magciusI saw that article.09:02
viraldiegochrisccoulson, noticed the 3.6 packages from that ppa still have the "pre" suffix, does that mean the 4.0 packages will also keep the "pre" suffix forever?09:02
chrisccoulsonyeah, it's going to be a lot of fun keeping up with that09:02
magciusAre 'release channels' being managed in terms of hg branches?09:03
magciushg branches are terrible.09:03
chrisccoulsonviraldiego, in the daily PPA, yes.09:03
chrisccoulsonmagcius, i assume so09:03
chrisccoulsonthey would need to be, to be able to merge changes in from fx-beta09:03
viraldiegochrisccoulson, am I right to assume then that that daily ppa, will never come with a version number > 4.0 (because 4.0b | 4.0pre < 4.0)?09:05
chrisccoulsonviraldiego, it will have whatever is in mozilla-central09:05
chrisccoulsonso it will become 5.0~ something soon09:05
viraldiegochrisccoulson, thanks for your help I'll check mozilla-central and ask in the firefox mailing lists09:13
chrisccoulsonviraldiego, what exactly are you trying to find out?09:14
viraldiegochrisccoulson, there's an addon that uses an appversion flag in the chrome.manifest and it's set to "appversion > 4", which doesn't work on my version (4.0b13pre)09:16
chrisccoulsonno, it won't09:16
chrisccoulsonbut, what do you want to ask?09:16
viraldiegoThe maintainer of that addon was asking me why I sent him a pull request if firefox rc1 already comes with version 4.009:17
viraldiegoSo I was just wondering whether it was worth him pulling my change or not, if the nightly builds are going to stay as 4.0pre for a while then it's probably worth it09:17
chrisccoulsonno, it's not worth it09:18
chrisccoulsonit will change soon09:18
chrisccoulsonanyway, i have to disappear now09:18
viraldiegoAlright, that's good to know, cheers09:18
