 The mac64 symlink was removed after the modified betatest snippets were pushed live (see [[Releases/Firefox_4.0b7/BuildNotes#Add_ja-JP-mac_and_swap_to_mac_in_dir_names|here]]).
+--[[User:Rail|Rail]] 08:47, 6 December 2010 (PST): Removing mac64 symlink causes a failure of updates builder for the next version, which tries to use mac64 directory to download the previous release. I restored the symlink. See {{bug|616726}} for more details.

 == Final verify ==
 [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?id=489440 Patch] to add ja-JP-mac to the list of locales for 4.0b4, b5, b6. That should test all the partial and complete update paths, but we should also write some lines to make sure the old universals have working update links too.
+The only failure is that we don't have ja-JP-mac partials:
