I have an alarm  that's supposed to run every day -- it's very
important that it runs daily.

In order to make sure the alarm is set, I capture the BOOT_COMPLETED
event set the alarm there.  I also set the alarm when my app starts.

Yesterday, I had a user complain that her alarm was not firing.  It
made me think, what happens to the alarm when an app is updated from
the Market?  I assume it will get killed, but unless the user restarts
the phone or runs the app, it will never be started again.

Is that I am describing the reality?  If so, is there a way around
it?  If not, I see this a very big problem as my app is not something
everybody may use every day and combined with the automatic updates
facility of the market, there is a very real possibility that
important financial processing will not take place.

Thanks,
Zsolt
