bkerensa | chrisccoulson: Ubuntu removes Telemetry from Firefox Nightly apparently? | 16:20 |
---|---|---|
bkerensa | chrisccoulson: If I build Nightly from source I get Telemetry feature under Data Choices | 16:20 |
bkerensa | but if I use our Nightly PPA then nothing | 16:20 |
kbrosnan | bkerensa: i would guess that it would show up in about:buildconfig | 16:55 |
bkerensa | kbrosnan: I just went to about:telemetry and enabled it | 16:56 |
bkerensa | I hope that is actually submits data and is not disabled somewhere else | 16:56 |
bkerensa | :D | 16:56 |
kbrosnan | in the ubuntu version it would tell you if they disable it when building | 16:58 |
bkerensa | kbrosnan: they do and apparently its intentional | 17:10 |
chrisccoulson | yes, it's intentional | 17:11 |
chrisccoulson | 1 second, on a call atm. will explain more after | 17:11 |
bkerensa | kk | 17:12 |
bkerensa | My understanding is its just for official builds? But if I manually enable it under about:telemetry does it send data still and is this data still useful to Mozilla? | 17:13 |
chrisccoulson | the main reason we disable telemetry is that when i discussed the idea of enabling it, it was suggested that we should leave it disabled because we might skew results from official builds (with our different toolchain / build config) | 17:23 |
chrisccoulson | i'm not sure if that opinion has changed or not though | 17:23 |
bkerensa | chrisccoulson: hmm... well I'm not keen on downloading a nightly daily from Moz site especially since I have no idea how to drop it into unity launcher | 17:24 |
bkerensa | but I want my data to be helpful at same time | 17:24 |
