This "canonical - 1.0" string comes from /usr/lib/firefox/distribution/distribution.ini. See https://wiki.mozilla.org/Distribution_INI_File.
And this is where these fields are used for the about dialog: https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla- central/file/tip/browser/base/content/aboutDialog.js. This could easily be patched by changing the value of distroIdField.hidden to true in https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla- central/file/tip/browser/components/preferences/in-content/main.js#l503. But as pointed out by Chris, this decision is better left for upstream. Please file a bug at https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/enter_bug.cgi#h=dupes%7CFirefox to request for this field to be hidden by default, or to provide distributors with a preference to hide it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/418203 Title: "Mozilla Firefox for Ubuntu canonical - 1.0" doesn't make sense To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/418203/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
