Build 1

Tag

Hung on the first 'hg out' because the slave it was running on didn't have the host key for hg.mozilla.org accepted. Went around and accepted the host key on all slaves (not just Linux), cleaned out the tag directory on moz2-linux-slave19, and restarted. Tagging worked fine afterwards.

Source

No problems

Build/Repack

No problems with Linux build or l10n. No problems with Mac build or l10n. No problems with Win32 build or l10n.

TODO prioritize release builders above others or use different slave set for l10n. mac l10n took awhile to start because the nightly builds got triggered first.

Removed .../build1/en-US.xpi, which is not handled properly until bug 485860 is fixed.'
