bug 1091282

Firefox Build 1

Expecting a build2 for a further fix

Checklist

• (RelMan) Ship the l10n milestone
• (RelMan) Submit to Ship It
• Upload to Apple - delay this until we know more about build2, can be as late as Nov 3
• no further steps to do, see build2

Issues

• win32 update verify 6/10 failed to purge enough space and show some output, so buildbot killed it. PYTHONUNBOFFERED=1 would help
• missed disabling whatsnew pages for all versions in patcher config, as those are being handled in-app by bug 1077643
  • fix config with a patch for build2
  • if we don't do a build2 we should munge the snippets, doing a

    sed -i -e '/^openURL/d' -e 's,^actions=showURL,actions=silent,'

    on all versions.
