> Type: Bugfix / Usability

> Bugtracker references: http://bugs.typo3.org/view.php?id=15653

> Branches: 4_3, 4_4
> 
> Problem:
> EM function "Check for extension updates" lists extensions which have
> updates in TER. This list shows upload-comments of all versions which are
> newer than the installed version.
> The upload-comment also shows the comment of the installed version. The
> comment of this particular version should be removed. It confuses the user,
> since it mixes information about installed versions and forthcoming update
> changes.
> 
> Solution:
> Remove comment of installed version
> 
> Steps to reproduce:
> Have a look at the screenshots attached to the bug report.
> or:
> 1) Go to tools->EM
> 2) Choose function "Check for extension updates"
> 3) Look at the Upload-Comment column in the list of new versions
> 
> Additional information:
> Patches are written against 4.3 and 4.4 branches. Since EM was announced to
> be rewritten in 4.5, no patch for trunk is provided.
