[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1970492] Re: Firefox update pushing me to update to 91.0.1 when I am on 91.0.2
Browser now updates normally without spam, unfortunately Firefox 99.0.1 and the new update 100.0 seem to have some issues with some website I use that use javascript/ajax. So currently for those websites I have to use another web browser. -- 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/1970492 Title: Firefox update pushing me to update to 91.0.1 when I am on 91.0.2 Status in firefox package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: I am using Firefox on Ubuntu 16.04 and has been spamming me to update my browser for awhile now and thus I did so today to 91.0.2, only to discover the update spam continues telling me to update to 91.0.1 :/ What can I say, why is pushing people to update to a previous version a thing?

Okay I think I've fixed it... so here is what I did in the finish * I downloaded firefox-99.0.1.tar.bz2 * I extracted it on my desktop * I opened Terminal and navigated to my desktop * I then used Firefox to look at More Troubleshooting Information to see where my Firefox was installed * I then used RSYNC -av to merge the new Firefox with the old and now I have 99.0.1 with all my bookmarks/logins intact Perhaps not the best way to do things but it works. Now we'll see if I still get the update spam or not... -- 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/1970492 Title: Firefox update pushing me to update to 91.0.1 when I am on 91.0.2 Status in firefox package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: I am using Firefox on Ubuntu 16.04 and has been spamming me to update my browser for awhile now and thus I did so today to 91.0.2, only to discover the update spam continues telling me to update to 91.0.1 :/ What can I say, why is pushing people to update to a previous version a thing?

The 91.8.0ESR is what I got through snap and its super broken. Which is why I went for the manual install. Something weird is going on because I just looked at the package I installed from and it is the 99.0.1 but for some strange reason it comes up as 91.0.2 I dunno whats going on. -- 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/1970492 Title: Firefox update pushing me to update to 91.0.1 when I am on 91.0.2 Status in firefox package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: I am using Firefox on Ubuntu 16.04 and has been spamming me to update my browser for awhile now and thus I did so today to 91.0.2, only to discover the update spam continues telling me to update to 91.0.1 :/ What can I say, why is pushing people to update to a previous version a thing?

The snap package has all kinds of problems so I installed the tar.bz2 package from the Firefox website and as you can plainly see I have 91.0.2 installed per the attached screenshot. I dunno what is wrong with the snap package but the downloading and saving of files is all messed up such as not saving to the downloads folder and when I click on "open containing folder" nothing happens... so I uninstalled the snap package. The only thing annoying me presently is the update message coming up multiple times a day and would very much like to shut it off permanently. ** Attachment added: "Version of Firefox I currently have" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/1970492/+attachment/5584325/+files/Screenshot%20from%202022-04-27%2019-32-13.png -- 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/1970492 Title: Firefox update pushing me to update to 91.0.1 when I am on 91.0.2 Status in firefox package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: I am using Firefox on Ubuntu 16.04 and has been spamming me to update my browser for awhile now and thus I did so today to 91.0.2, only to discover the update spam continues telling me to update to 91.0.1 :/ What can I say, why is pushing people to update to a previous version a thing?
