    Can't we just use "Help>Check for Updates" in Firefox 2.0.0.4 to do this?

      Check for updates from the Help menu only seems to work if compiled. If installed using the repositories, it only updates when the newer package is available.

      That said, the last time there was a bug update like this, it only took a couple days for it to make it into the repositories. I'd be surprised if it's not there by friday, or the end of the weekend at the latest.

        At my day job, where I'm stuck working on a Win-World piece of junk, the Firefox update appeared a couple of hours ago, all by itself. So, I would say it's making its way out to the larger world ...

          In the Firefox:
          Edit > Preferences

          In the Firefox Preferences > Advanced
          Update tab ->

          Automatically check for updates to:
          Firefox
          Installed Add-ons
          Search Engines

          Not for paranoids
          Before you edit, BACKUP !

          Why there are dead links ?

              Just because you're paranoid, Rog, doesn't mean they're NOT out to get you!
