In hindsight, what we should have done was also create a small=2 page with no warning, for use as the default in new TBBs when the versions file is inaccessible.

I think you misunderstood the later posts after OP - the REAL latest - latest TBB ver was downloaded & on FIRST start gave the notice an update was avail. I believe others said it's fixed now (thanks) - but w/ the orig details of problem, there shouldn't be any need to install a new ver & immediately RESTART it to stop false warnings. That makes no sense. It wasn't just that it DID a ver check on 1st start, but said a new ver was avail, when it wasn't. ___ tor-talk mailing list tor-talk@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk

I did some quick tests with TBB on Linux, versions 0.2.33-2 and 0.2.33-3. In both cases I get these results: 1) https://check.torproject.org/ - no warning 2) https://check.torproject.org/?lang=en-US&small=1 - warning 3) https://check.torproject.org/?lang=en-US&small=1&uptodate=1 - no warning 2 was the home page used in TBB 0.2.33-2 3 is the newer home page used in TBB 0.2.33-3 Ciao, Marco -- Marco Bonetti Tor research and other stuff: http://sid77.slackware.it/ Slackintosh Linux Project Developer: http://workaround.ch/ Linux-live for powerpc: http://workaround.ch/pub/rsync/mb/linux-live/ My GnuPG key id: 0x0B60BC5F ___ tor-talk mailing list tor-talk@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk

Re: [tor-talk] notice - newer ver available just after install latest TBB
NOTE: my 2nd reply to Andrew's response - still getting "update available" after installing (latest) latest TBB. Tor-talk must be down - not seen new msgs in a while.

When click link, the ver it shows is same I just unpacked 2.2.33-3. Yep, I'm sure that's the one I started, when getting this msg. Looking in the folder where files were unpacked - in readme - clearly states ver is 2.2.33-3. ___ tor-talk mailing list tor-talk@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
