This is getting really irritating. Besides being incorrect information as bug 549447 points out, there should also be a way to permanently disable this for those of us who don't want/need it. Hmmm... Will setting app.update.silent to true accomplish this?

Either this pref is badly named, or not what I'm looking for. There is a UI pref for disabling the START page. I'm talking about the 'What's New' page that opens every time TB updates itself. You didn't answer about the app.update.silent pref - what is it for? > Doing so may also mean you don't get presented with migration assistants and > other information on future updates. Reopening, because setting a hidden pref that does *not* accomplish the purpose of the bug is not a resolution. I did, however, modify the bug Title to be more indicative of what I'm asking for. There should be a way to disable the 'Whats New' page so that it doesn't open every time TB updates from one minor version to another, without totally disabling *major* update notifications, migration assistants, etc. Reply at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/thunderbird/+bug/643736/comments/2 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ On 2010-04-07T13:52:36+00:00 Ludovic-mozillamessaging wrote: Charles look into bugzilla we have a dup for your issue.

Bug 548619 is about providing more contextually correct update pages, which I agree would be a good thing. What this bug is asking for is simply a way to *disable* *minor* update pages - ie, going from 3.0.5 to 3.0.6, or 3.1.1 to 3.1.2) - without disabling the update page/migration assistant for major updates - ie, 3.1.x to 3.2...

'May'? Either it will or it won't... so, can you confirm which it is? I certainly wouldn't want to disable major update notifications, and especially migration assistants for major updates if they are needed...
