-//    the value for the name must be the same as the value for the attribute name
-//    on the certificate.
-// If these conditions aren't met it will be treated the same as when there is
-// no update available. This validation will not be performed when the

-// when the |app.update.cert.checkAttributes| preference is set to false. Also,
-// the |app.update.url.override| preference should ONLY be used for testing.
