15 I'm confused by all this. Why should the bindist USE flag control
16 whether Firefox ESR or Firefox aurora/developer gets built? Will
17 Firefox ESR no longer compile with the option
18 --disable-official-branding ? Or does --disable-official-branding now
19 produce an ESR version that behaves like a developer version WRT
20 profiles? (If the answer to that last question is "yes", then ISTM
21 this is an upstream bug.)
