Description Jakub 'Livio' Rusinek 2007-11-13 17:30:07 UTC 
Description of problem:
Actually, not a problem, but cosmetic change request ;) .
Epiphany uses Gecko. Gecko provides vendor settings.
My patch allows Epiphany to say "hey, I'm using Fedora" in UserAgent string :] .

Also, file I'm patching resets vendor even if set by user.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
2.20.1-3.fc8

How reproducible:
"Resetting" - always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. about:config, type vendor
2. change the values
3. restart browser and go to about:
  
Actual results:
Epiphany doesn't say it's using Fedora platform.

Expected results:
Epiphany with beautiful Fedora UA string :] .

Additional info:
It's nice propaganda :] .

As the patch is short and simple, we can easily reuse it for F9:

Every line has "> " at beginning (space is important).

I did something else which won't require touching this between releases.
Comment 4 Jakub 'Livio' Rusinek 2008-03-10 15:03:18 UTC 
Does Epiphany (or XULRunner) introduce Fedora in user-agent string?
