Bug Description

Binary package hint: ubufox

the new ubufoxRestart.xul/js feature uses strings currently added to ubufox.properties.

This breaks the restart notification feature for all languages without translation.

solution is to put the new strings to a separate .properties file, which will make firefox string bundle mechanism to fallback to en-US if the file doesnt exist at all for the used language.

---------------
ubufox (0.6~b1-0ubuntu4) intrepid; urgency=low

  (cherry-pick rev 116 from lp:ubufox)
  * fix LP: #273948 - restart notification broken for locales that lack
    restart notification string translation; we put 'restart' notification
    strings in their own .properties file to prevent breakage due to partial
    ubufox.properties files for non en-US languages and adjust files that
    refernce the new strings accordingly.
    - add locale/en-US/ubufox-restart.properties
    - update content/updateRestart.js
    - update content/updateRestart.xul
    - update locale/en-US/ubufox.properties
