Bulk validation shows incorrect multiprocessCompatible warning

Closed this issue · 1 comments

This was reported in the blog.

See, for example, version 3.0 of Addons Manager Hilite. install.rdf has the multiprocessCompatible flag set to true. The developer page for the add-on shows that it's compatible, and if I upload the file to the standalone validator and the compatibility validator, neither show any multiprocessCompatible warnings. However, the email the developer got points to this validation result that does show the incorrect warning. This apparently affected multiple add-ons.

Wow, this is a tricky one. We skip all install.rdf tests for bulk validation due to bug 735841. Collecting manifest data is part of these tests, which sounds odd and I'm surprised this hasn't surfaced sooner.
