+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #428332 +++ Now that bug 368091 is in, we should 1) Make xpfe by default use the generic toolkit license, so that the xpfe license file can be eliminated (easy), and 2) Make Camino process the toolkit version to add the MoFo EULA line back in, and (ideally) set up a chrome override to use that as about:licese or (more realistically, since we don't have an camino.jar) stuff the modified copy in Embed.jar in place of the copy we get from xpfe (which after 1 is really from toolkit).

Here's a patch that does this, doing part 2 the quick way (just replacing the file in Embed.jar rather than setting up a whole new jar and chrome overrides and assorted fun). Is there a better way to get the file into embed-replacements.tmp for rsyncing than what I'm doing now?

How's this going to impact the building of Camino ML?

It doesn't.

We can indeed shoehorn the license.html preprocessing and jarring into our pinstripe Makefile and jar.mn, which makes things much easier and cleaner. I wasn't able to get the actual "chrome override" stuff working (it may not be supported in the old chrome code), so we still just overwrite the content/global/license.html file in the jar, but that's life. As before, anyone else still using xpfe ends up with a generic license.html appropriate for non-mozilla.org projects, and xpfe's copy of license.html goes away forever.

Comment on attachment 380669 [details] [diff] [review] A better quick way Requesting 1.9.0.12 approval on the Core (xpfe/) parts of this patch. This is low-risk; Camino is the only current known 1.9.anything consumer of the xpfe copy of license.html that's being removed here, but the xpfe jar manifest is still being changed to do the right thing for any unknown consumers. This is the final part of bug 368091, which eliminates multiple copies of license.html (about:license) in the tree!

Checked in on cvs trunk. One license.html to rule them all.
