Comment (by mcs):

 Replying to [comment:42 gk]:
 > Thanks. The Tor Browser and the Gitian changes are merged (commit
 3b338aadd92ac0c3d9584fceea28f8934cdf20f0 and
 55ba877738578e16269ce3517db5deb2a596083e). I updated the versions.nightly
 file accordingly.

 Thanks!  I don't know what the release plan is for 4.0a2, but if we need
 to ship another release without the updater enabled, it may be sufficient
 to add this back into the .mozconfig files:
 {{{
 ac_add_options --disable-updater
 }}}

 That said, leaving it enabled shouldn't really do any harm (since update
 checks will quietly fail if the server infrastructure is not in place),
 but 4.x users may see that they can check for updates via the about box
 and wonder why no update is ever found.
