Recurring crash with Firefox Nightly about ffupdater

[Tobi823]

I've discovered the problem. The structure of the version name of Firefox Nightly has changed.

FFUpdater expects something like "Nightly 210428 17:01" but it's now "90.0a1". https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/mozilla/firefox-fenix/

[Tobi823]

Temporary workaround until I can fix the real problem: Delete Firefox Nightly

[Tobi823]

It's now fixed in version "71.1.3". Should be available soon on F-Droid.

Which version of FFUpdater are you using? 73.1.2, 73.1.1, ... ?

I don't know what I had before the first uninstall, but f-droid is offering 73.1.1, that's what I just reinstalled and it crashed immediately on trying to open it.

And I just tried running it (same release) on my other phone, a Pixel 3 running stock OS, and it crashed. Seems like 73.1.1 has a fatal disagreement with the environment. Fresh crash from my Pixel 3: java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to resume activity {de.marmaro.krt.ffupdater/de.marmaro.krt.ffupdater.MainActivity}: java.lang.NullPointerException at android.app.ActivityThread.performResumeActivity(ActivityThread.java:4438) at android.app.ActivityThread.handleResumeActivity(ActivityThread.java:4470) at android.app.servertransaction.TransactionExecutor.performLifecycleSequence(TransactionExecutor.java:224) at android.app.servertransaction.TransactionExecutor.cycleToPath(TransactionExecutor.java:201) at android.app.servertransaction.TransactionExecutor.executeLifecycleState(TransactionExecutor.java:173) at android.app.servertransaction.TransactionExecutor.execute(TransactionExecutor.java:97) at android.app.ActivityThread$H.handleMessage(ActivityThread.java:2066) at android.os.Handler.dispatchMessage(Handler.java:106) at android.os.Looper.loop(Looper.java:223) at android.app.ActivityThread.main(ActivityThread.java:7660) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Native Method) at com.android.internal.os.RuntimeInit$MethodAndArgsCaller.run(RuntimeInit.java:592) at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit.main(ZygoteInit.java:947) Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException at de.marmaro.krt.ffupdater.app.impl.FirefoxNightly.getDisplayInstalledVersion(FirefoxNightly.kt:38) at de.marmaro.krt.ffupdater.MainActivity.initUI(MainActivity.kt:129) at de.marmaro.krt.ffupdater.MainActivity.onResume(MainActivity.kt:82) at android.app.Instrumentation.callActivityOnResume(Instrumentation.java:1456) at android.app.Activity.performResume(Activity.java:8135) at android.app.ActivityThread.performResumeActivity(ActivityThread.java:4428) ... 12 more

Thank you! I can confirm that uninstalling Firefox Nightly fixed the crash for me.
