After upgrade firefox does not ask for restart
On Linux Mint when Firefox is opened and meanwhile operating system package manager upgrades Firefox, then FF does not notify me that it needs restart.
I notice it since some extension stops working. Later I have checked package manager logs and see, that FF had been updated. Wasn't in older versions so that FF notified me that restart is needed for firefox?
Is it a bug or I have some setting missing. I need notification window be visible as long as user closes it or firefox is restarted...

Unfortunately no, it looks like it is only done manually: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/update-firefox-latest-version#firefo...

HI pervapp, I do not know however this should describe what to expect for updates Configuration Options for Updates
Does linux normally manage its own updates? It looks like ubuntu is automatic? http://www.libre-software.net/how-to-install-firefox-on-ubuntu-lin...
Third-party builds like the ones provided by Linux distro are not updated in Firefox so the Updates in Advanced are not there.
Thanks for reading the problem.
So there is nothing built into FF to notify about FF being updated? Maybe some app.update.* setting?

Looks like that yea. I found out that for Ubuntu there is xul-ext-ubufox package which should do almost needed thing. I will install it into mint.
Integrates the browser with Ubuntu to: * Enable searching for missing plugins from Ubuntu software catalog * Add the following options to the Help menu - Get help on-line - Help translating Firefox - Ubuntu Release Notes * Set homepage to Ubuntu Start Page * Display a restart notification after upgrading Firefox * Add ask.com to the search engines.

Well manually as in extracting the tarball and making sure the Firefox folder has read/write permissions (putting in /home/ makes this easy) then yes. After that Firefox will then receive updates from Mozilla just like on Mac OSX and Windows.
