If I understand correctly, if you try to update from 2.7.1 to 2.7.2, it
tries to grab the partial update first. If for any reason it fails to
get the partial update, it falls back to the complete download.
Chris, as I understand it, the hard-working SeaMonkey Council produce
the full version first, and then, maybe the next day, produce the update
file.
The full version and update files are all created before the new version
is released. When the new version is released, the website gets updated,
and the new update files are pushed to the auto-update channel (among
other things). If you don't get prompted to update until the next day,
it's because SeaMonkey checks for updates every 24 hours.
More specifically, there are two update files: partial and complete.
See
<http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/seamonkey/releases/2.7.2/update/win32/en-US/>.
So when I say it falls back tot eh complete download, I mean that it
falls back to the complete update file.
