I agree with Michael on that. The only reason I can think of why Firefox 3.5 is Shiretoko in Ubuntu is because Ubuntu is awaiting for the approval of Mozilla Foundation to use the branding because of the modification it made to the code of Firefox. If that's so then it should be told as the resolution of this bug and as soon as we get the approval the User-Agent string should be changed.
Debian is of course having it's Iceweasel but as far as I remember Ubuntu was standing firm with using Firefox brand and I think it was a good choice and it should stay like that because Ubuntu's target user base is different than Debian's. On the other hand if we want to make people agree and believe that Ubuntu is "Linux for human beings" then we cannot make life of these human beings harder by trying to fix things that cannot be fixed by us. After you contact the site owner - what do you think they are changing in their website? Do they stop depending on the user-agent string? I believe that most of the time they just add a quirk to their browser recognition code to treat Shiretoko/3.5 as Firefox/3.5. -- Shiretoko user agent string breaks compatibilty with major websites https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/397211 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
