Most of the time, when a user accesses the following link to my extension:
https://addons.mozilla.org/extensions/moreinfo.php?application=firefox&category=Image%20Browsing&numpg=10&id=790
the user gets the wrong OS installer. E.g., i'm on Windows, most of the time i get the Linux installer from this URL, and if i'm on Linux i get the Windows installer.
This has been going on for at least a month, and i even added some text to my extension description to help English-speaking users find the right installer:
Note: there is a bug in addons web site code that offers you a Linux installer for Windows. Please go to all previous releases link on the bottom to access the Windows installer.
Reproducible: Sometimes
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Access https://addons.mozilla.org/extensions/moreinfo.php?application=firefox&category=Image%20Browsing&numpg=10&id=790
2. If you get the right OS, wait a few hours, and access it again.
3.
Actual Results:
Wrong installer offered.
Expected Results:
Installer for user's OS is offered.
This appears to confuse a lot of users.
