I have no idea if this is still a problem, I don't seem to get extension autoupdates at startup other than when Firefox updates itself now. Maybe it's just my profile getting old, as I have automatic update of extensions enabled. Firefox updates are disabled, don't know if that would matter.
I'll leave it to someone else to decide if this is still a problem, as I haven't noticed anything for years now. As far as I'm concerned, there's no problem anymore. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/219755 Title: Visiting the Extension Home Page replaces the saved session Status in The Mozilla Firefox Browser: Invalid Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Summary: Start up Firefox and have it search for updates to Extensions. If it finds any updates, apply them. Once you choose the button to apply them it will display a dialog stating that the extensions were updated successfully. In that dialog box, right click one of the extensions that were updated, and choose Visit Home Page. If the user chooses this option it will cause the Firefox instance that loads to display only the Extension home page and none of the other pages that were part of the previous session. Firefox 2.0.0.13 Kubuntu 7.10 Steps 1. Set Firefox to load the previously saved session 2. Open mutiple tabs in Firefox 3. Restart Firefox at a point when the there are extensions that need to be updated 4. When Firefox restarts, it should prompt the user to update the extensions that it found updates for. Click Install Updates at this dialog box. 5. After clicking Install Updates, the dialog box will state whether each extension was updated successfully. Right click one of the entries and click Visit Home Page 6. Observe whether the tabs that were open in Firefox previously will be opened Expected Results: When the user clicks Visit Home Page it should open the Extension's Home Page in a new tab Actual Results: The tabs that were previously opened are not reloaded when the user clicks Visit Home Page. Instead the user just gets one open tab with the Extension's Home Page loaded. This scenario has not been tested with Firefox 3.
