If firefox is coming from the fedora package, and you just updated, then there should be no updates to firefox, as it will be fully up to date. If there is some kind of churn, it must be something else. It is good practice to shut down firefox before updating, and restart it after the updates are done. That way, if a library it depends on has changed, it will get the new version. Weird things can happen if you run a program that was started with an older version of a library, if you run it with a newer version, and it has changed. Not always crashes. Gnome has mandated shutdown after update (reboot) to be sure that this problem doesn't occur. I just update from a console with some programs closed, and haven't had any issues, but they have a valid point. Try creating a new user, and running a generic firefox after an update. That is, without any addons or customization. Does it still have the same behavior? _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
