BuildID: 2000052208 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Select Mozilla in Finder 2. Press command-i 3. Look at the version field Actual Results: The version field says "5.0M13 Gecko, Mozilla Open Source" Expected Results: Expected the version string to reflect the version of the current build. The milestone number should be right (pre-M16 now). It would be preferrable to include the entire build id there.

reassign to jj so he can update nsMacVersion.r. Perhaps we should modify the automation or BuildNGLayout to put the build date in there as well?

seeking approval to update nsMacVersion.r to display "6.0M16 Gecko, Mozilla Open Source" (instead of 5.0M13) Updating the build script to automatically include the build ID in the vers string is a good idea but would require to use the .r file above as a template rather than a static file. To be considered.

But isn't the Mozilla.org version still called 5.0 and not 6.0? The user agent string says 5.0.

Good point. New strings now suggested are: Mozilla builds: vers1: 5.0M16 Gecko, Mozilla Open Source vers2: mozilla.org Netscape builds: vers1: 6.0 PR2, Copyrigth © 1994-2000 Netscape Communications Corp. vers2: Netscape 6 Preview Release 2 Submitted to the PDT team. will check in changes to nsMacVersion.r when approved.

The new wording sounds fine to me. Added nsbeta2 keyword.

fix checked in in mozilla/xpfe/bootstrap/nsMacVersion.r (M16) and ns/xpfe/bootstrap/macbuild/nsMacVersion.r (PR2)

verified. we probably should figure out a way to do this automatically. but for now, I'm comfortable with having to fix this manually every milestone. jj - we branched for M16 yesterday, so you might want to make the change to M17 when you get a chance.

updated on the tip for m17.
