[OK] NoScript 2.6.9.29rc1 is downdating to NoScript 2.6.9.29

[DJ-Leith]

Background

Using a profile that I had not used for a few weeks.
At "about:addons" did a 'check for updates' and, as expected, several Extensions were updated.

I had a 'NoScript splash screen', for a new major version of Noscript,
tell me that NoScript 2.6.9.28rc2 was NOT the latest version
(probably because the latest version was not available at AMO)
and to collect it from, IIRC, from getit.

I used https://noscript.net/feed?c=200&t=a
to install NoScript 2.6.9.29rc1.xpi

After a restart, at "about:addons", I did another 'check for updates'.

This time 'a new update was found' and NoScript 2.6.9.29 was installed.

I have now repeated this on several profiles.


STR

1. Install NoScript 2.6.9.29rc1

2. at "about:addons", Extensions tab, do a 'check for updates'.

Actual
NoScript 2.6.9.29 will be installed.
I speculate that this profile has also switched to the 'normal release channel'
(that is it is NO LONGER on the NoScript rc channel).

Expected
"No updates found" and no update done.
Still on the NoScript rc channel.


Additional Information

If the Profile has NoScript 2.6.8.28rc2 then "No updates found" and no update done.
Does this mean AMO does not have a newer rc version than 2.6.8.28rc2?

Checking
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefo ... /versions/

It has
Version 2.6.9.29 Released July 1, 2015 549.0 kB Works with Firefox 3.0.9 and later, Mobile 1.0 - 2.0a1pre,
SeaMonkey 2.0 and later

Version 2.6.9.28 Released June 30, 2015 548.9 kB Works with Firefox 3.0.9 and later, Mobile 1.0 - 2.0a1pre,

SeaMonkey 2.0 and later

N.B.
There is NO Version 2.6.9.29rc1

So, this might be a temporary glitch until Version 2.6.9.29rc1, is available at AMO.

Confirmed.

2.6.9.29 does show as an Available Update.
(Also note that I have Automatic Updates, for NoScript, turned off, so its not like I've got it in /staged/ or anything like that.)

Same story here. I would suspect that DJ-Leith is correct and this is related to whatever the AMO bug is that Giorgio alluded to in viewtopic.php?p=76939#p76939

Yes it does

[Giorgio Maone]

Should be worked around (by manual AMO admin intervention) now, but dev builds treated this way are unsigned.
Let's hope they fix this ASAP...

[DJ-Leith]

All working again, thanks Giorgio.

2.6.9.28rc2 is now updating to 2.6.9.30rc1
BOTH 2.6.9.29rc1 and 2.6.9.30rc1 are at AMO.

Also, as you said, 2.6.9.30rc1 is not signed by Mozilla.

This is easy to see in Nightly and Dev Ed.
