Today I was running Firefox on a Windows box I found out what is the issue:
You can select wheter you want Firefox to check for updates on the browser, the themes and the extensions. If you deselect the browser, the options mentioned are greyed out. As I cannot select firefox to be updated.. The behaviour of greying out the options is therefor correct. The bug is now, make sure these options are always greyed out, not giving the impression that something irreversable happend. -- [Firefox Ubuntu 6.06] Automatic update preferences are locked once changed https://launchpad.net/bugs/54929 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
