-------------------------------------+-------------------------------------
The patches for bug 1574980 fix a security flaw in dealing with the
maintenance service on Windows. We don't use that one, so we should be not
affected. However, the way the fix was written is that it drags
maintenance service related code into the general updater code: we build
that now, too, which was not the case before. We don't want and need that
and should either back out the whole patches (both for esr60 and esr68) or
come up with a better solution.
I guess due to time constraints we follow the former idea and try to write
better patches later on (and get those upstreamed).
