User:Sardisson/Troubleshoot Camino Bugs and Features Scratchpad

Feature Requests

• handling org.mozilla.camino.plist to ensure freshness
• possibility to start with about:blank

  Probably the way to implement this is to read a preferred homepage from a user defaults key, then echo it into the profiledir's user.js before launching Camino; this should approximate what Tinderboxen and test harnesses do to launch apps

  • If the last-ordered pref's value is not in quotes, the parsing code barfs right now
  • Sometimes we fail with "profile folder already exists", which seems to be really bad luck with random not being random :/ Did this change appreciably in the dev version?
    • I'm seeing this again on 10.3.9; the last time I looked, the diff was insignificant
    • Maybe in a failure case, that value is getting saved internally?
      • rnd itself gets cleared before being populated on each run, and the profile path is constructed by calling rnd, not by calling some other var that might be saved
    • This (seems) to go away when I re-save on 10.3.9
• remember location of last-launched Camino
• option to re-use last fresh profile for testing round-trip bugs
