(firefox-nightly) is broken

Open BourgonLaurent opened this issue 5 years ago • 8 comments

Expected Behavior

Mozilla only gives one locale for Firefox Nightly: en-US. So the package should download the file firefox-70.0a1.en-US.win64.installer.exe and not firefox-70.0a1.fr.win64.installer.exe.

Current Behavior

The package tries to download a version with another locale (and this version doesn't exist). The package should not look for a locale and instead always use en-US because it is the only option. The installation will fail with an Error 404: Not Found.

Possible Solution

A temporary solution I have currently is adding --params "l=en-US" when installing/upgrading the package. However, this doesn't work with choco upgrade all. The optimal solution is to remove the locale variable that the package uses.

Steps to Reproduce (for bugs)

  1. Use chocolatey on a computer that isn't configured in English (United States)
  2. Install or Upgrade firefox-nightly (choco install firefox-nightly --pre)
  3. Accept the installation script and wait for the error message (404)

Context

The issue affects the upgrade all command because firefox-nightly needs to be installed/updated manually. Because it is a nightly version, there's a new version everyday and doing it manually everyday loses a feature of a package manager.

Hi,

thanks for this issue. It seems that they changed the folder structure once again :(

I'll look into fixing this.
