Thus, Gears broke. Now that 0.5.29.0 is out, user with the broken Gears goes to http://gears.google.com/ to upgrade. However, the entire right side of the page at http://gears.google.com/ is blank - the blue box that detects if Gears is installed and offers the link to click here for installation is not coming up. The firefox Firefox Add-ons window does not detect Gears as having been installed either, so that's not an option. Tried remove the relevant Gears directories and so on, but nothing I do leads to the detection script working. I am pretty confident it's a bug in that script in the important edge case of having upgraded Firefox sometime in the last few weeks. Thanks in advance for your help with this.
