** Description changed:
STR:
- 1. Start up Ubuntu's version of Firefox.
- 2. Visit Help|About
+ 1. Start up Ubuntu's version of Firefox.
+ 2. Visit Help|About Firefox
ACTUAL RESULTS:
- It says "You are currently on the update channel."
+ It says "You are currently on the update channel."
(Note the missing channel-name between "the" and "update". The dialog has 2 spaces there, and no channel-name.)
EXPECTED RESULTS:
- Something like "You are currently on the <b>Ubuntu Packaging</b> update channel" or something like that.
+ Something like "You are currently on the <b>Ubuntu Packaging</b> update channel" or something like that.
This presumably happens because Ubuntu ships a version of firefox with
Mozilla's update-channels disabled, and sends updates via its packaging
system. This makes sense; still, it's incorrect to say "You are
currently on the update channel".
For comparison, the Firefox 7 official release (from Mozilla) says "You
are currently on the <b>release</b> update channel."
