 are tied right now because I don't whether or not this system will 
 change for the first release of 1.5 into the main archive.

I'm pretty sure I replied to your mail. Maybe you didn't receive it.

Anyways, the update-mozilla-firefox-chrome won't return, since it's
useless for firefox 1.5. You can just check whether it exists or not
before running it.

Attached a patch for doing so.

Cheers,

Mike

Interesting, I don't have it and can't recall seeing it. I must have deleted it 
with all of my spam.


Anyways, the update-mozilla-firefox-chrome won't return, since it's
useless for firefox 1.5. You can just check whether it exists or not
before running it.


Thanks for the info. Guess installed-chrome.txt is out the window, which is 
fine by me.
The new system in 1.5 seems to be working great.


Attached a patch for doing so.


Applied. Will be fixed in 0.9.4-1.


Thanks,
Mike

Right now I am assuming that once Firefox 1.5 is released to unstable, 
the Debian chrome update scripts will be included. I sent the Firefox 
maintainer an email to try and confirm this, but I haven't received any 
reply yet. Note that this script is Debian-specific, it's there so a 
package can drop a file into /var/lib/mozilla-firefox/extensions.d
