Welcome! Please use this template for reporting bugs or requesting features. For questions about using Workbox, the best place to ask is Stack Overflow, tagged with [workbox]: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/ask?tags=workbox

Library Affected:
workbox-window

Browser & Platform:
all browsers

Issue or Feature Request Description: When there are multiple stacked new service workers, the activated event is newer sent. This is because the event listener is removed after the first new service worker is received: https://github.com/GoogleChrome/workbox/blob/v6/packages/workbox-window/src/Workbox.ts#L379. Subscriptions for new service workers are never created for state change events.

When reporting bugs, please include relevant JavaScript Console logs and links to public URLs at which the issue could be reproduced.

Thanks—conceptually this is the same type of change as what's described at #2817 for controlling—we can make both those changes.

Hi there,

Workbox is moving to a new engineering team within Google. As part of this move, we're declaring a partial bug bankruptcy to allow the new team to start fresh. We realize this isn't optimal, but realistically, this is the only way we see it working. For transparency, here're the criteria we applied:

• For PRs, we closed everything that doesn't target the current v7 branch.
• For Issues, we closed everything that was created before 2024.

Thanks, and we hope for your understanding!
The Workbox team
