Shouldn't the status of this bug being changed form INVALID? I think accordingly to Mike Rooney email this is a legitimate bug since the update settings in Firefox ARE editable at one point. ** Changed in: firefox (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid = Confirmed -- Firefox 3: Edit Preferences

Hi clovepower. Confirming your own bugs defeats the point of the system, and I don't see anyone else who has confirmed that the options were at one point editable and now are not. Others have confirmed that the update options are disabled but that is by design. I will mark back to New until

OK, I see the point. What is confusing is that the settings are set in one way, you change them and it's no way to revert back...if it's difficult to remove them, isn't it possible to at least have them disabled by default? -- Firefox 3: Edit Preferences Advanced Update options disabled

Yes, sorry if I was not clear. The options are all ENABLED the first time I open the dialog (on a fresh install), until I click the Ask Me what I want to do radio button. AT THAT POINT they become disabled. Hence I found it confusing since it seems you can choose an option only once in you

Hi clovepower, thanks for using Ubuntu and thanks for your bug report! However, this is expected behavior. All Ubuntu updates are routed through Ubuntu's own update manager, and for good reason. It isn't the job of Firefox developers to ensure their updates don't break in Ubuntu and in the case

Well, I can confirm it, but although everything is updated by synaptic. If I'm wrong please correct me, if I'm right then confirm that. I wouldn't call it a bug and even if, hmm..., well it's not really important IMHO. -- Firefox 3: Edit Preferences Advanced Update options disabled

Well it fails me to understand why put a setting you cannot set then...removing the radio buttons will be better since you cannot use them. Not sure I understand what U need about Synaptic. -- Firefox 3: Edit Preferences Advanced Update options disabled https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/263566

I can confirm this. In my case, Automatically check for updates has Firefox disabled (i.e. it is shadowed that I can't check the box), in addition to what is reported above. I have no way of undoing or changing what has been selected in When updates to firefox are found. Firefox Installed:
