Description renewed_unfold356 2003-12-27 10:36:28 UTC 
When using MozillaFirebird from the mozilla-firebird-cvs ebuild and visiting a site requiring a password the browser prompts to save the passwords twice.
This does not happen when using the official pre-compiled nightly binaries from mozilla.org.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge mozilla-firebird-cvs
2. Launch MozillaFirebird
3. Go to a site where you can log in with a username/password
4. MozillaFirebird prompts to save username/password
5. Click yes or no
6. MozillaFirebird prompts to save username/password again
Actual Results:  
MozillaFirebird prompts twice to save username/password

Expected Results:  
MozillaFirebird should only prompt to save the username/password once

this also happens with 0.7-r1, although it doesnt happen to me on every site iirc ...
Comment 2 Robert Moss (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-02-10 09:02:01 UTC 
It's actually prompting first to save the username, and then to save the password. I'm not too sure this is a good idea, or why on earth it's happening. I haven't yet seen the same behaviour with the mozilla-firefox-cvs ebuild available on breakmygentoo.net, and it should be noted that the mozilla-firebird-cvs ebuild in portage is effectively unmaintained, but I'm not sure that this has been fixed. You might want to try this.

firebird-cvs no longer in portage
