@Luke: I followed steps 1 to 3 of the procedure for an SRU, please let me know if more input is needed from my side.
** Description changed: Binary package hint: epiphany-browser In epiphany 2.30.2 in lucid, the user agent string is the following: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; fr-fr) AppleWebKit/531.2+ (KHTML, like Gecko) Safari/531.2+ Debian/squeeze/sid () Epiphany/2.30.2 To be compared with the user agent string exposed by firefox: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; fr; rv:1.9.2.3) Gecko/20100423 Ubuntu/10.04 (lucid) Firefox/3.6.3 This makes detecting the version of Ubuntu at best difficult. The user agent string can be inspected easily at e.g. http://useragentstring.com/. + + + Information for an SRU: + + Impact of the bug on users: when browsing a dynamic website that relies + on the user agent string to determine the OS and its version and display + content accordingly, the user may not get the intended content (such a + web site may be e.g. the Ubuntu support and learning center, as was + discussed last UDS: see + https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/community-m-ubuntu- + support-and-learning-center). + + Fixed in the development branch: by modifying the branding.conf file + (see related branches). + + TEST CASE: + 1) Open Epiphany (Applications menu > Internet > Epiphany Web Browser) + 2) Browse to http://useragentstring.com/ + 3) Inspect the user agent string + Expected result: the string contains "Ubuntu/10.04 LTS" + Current result: the string contains "Debian/squeeze/sid" + + Regression potential: None as far as I know. ** Summary changed: - User Agent string says "Debian/squeeze/sid ()" instead of "Ubuntu/10.04 (lucid)" + User Agent string says "Debian/squeeze/sid ()" instead of "Ubuntu/10.04 LTS (lucid)" -- User Agent string says "Debian/squeeze/sid ()" instead of "Ubuntu/10.04 LTS (lucid)" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/578717 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
