5.0 CE MSI showing as Minefield (en-US)

Post by vendolis » Thu Jul 07, 2011 7:21 am

Hi,

i saw that this was an issue of the non-CE version. But it is still an issue with the CE version.
I downloaded it on the 6th July and it installed as Minefield.

Thanks a lot

Where does it show as Minefield - it doesn't on en-gb apart from the About -> Help bit.

Well this is the thing from the en-US install. And I have just downloaded and installed the en-GB Version from the download section and it is again minefield: http://hicap.frontmotion.com/Firefox/FM ... -en-GB.msi

This isn't an issue. The CE version is always branded that way in the about screen. Due to licensing the CE version can't use the standard icons or use the Mozilla name.

It never showed the Firefox Logo, but the World Logo. But it never showed as Minefield, which is the Official Firefox Alpha Version.

But it's only cosmetic - not the end of the world :)

I'm testing a deployment of 5.0.1, and the Help > About screen reports that we are on the Nightly release. Is this still an identity issue, or was the Nightly release of 5.0.1 used in the CE build? I don't recall any of the 3.x.x releases having disparate "About" screens.
