True. > But does it disable automatic updates of extension as well ? Yes. Actually, it is disabled by another property. > I didn't get any extension update warning in months using Debian Firefox > build, but yesterday I tried a nighly build from mozilla.org and I > immediately got prompted for an extension update. > > Extensions being most of the time installed on a per-user basis, > automatic update of extensions should be restored. You can enable it by yourself in /etc/mozilla-firefox/pref/firefox.js, or in about:config or in the preferences panel. You can also go in the extensions manager, and click on update to request updates by yourself. I tag this bug as wontfix, since I disabled auto update on purpose, it is still enableable, and you can still force an update even if disabled.
