Package: firefox
Version: 45.0.1-1~bpo80+1
Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,

   * What led up to the situation?
I added:
deb http://mozilla.debian.net/ jessie-backports firefox-release
to my /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mozilla-backports.list (replacing the
equivalent iceweasel-release line), and installed and ran firefox.

   * What was the outcome of this action?
The window title bar contained 'Nightly'
   * What outcome did you expect instead?
The window title bar should contain 'Firefox'

If I'm actually running Nightly, that's bad because I thought I was
installing Release.
If it's release but identifying as Nightly, that's also a problem.

Richard
