The description/title of this only speaks of this happening on update. I
am getting this on every restart of the browser (as described in Bug
#784542, which was set as a duplicate of this). Perhaps the title of
this report should be changed to say restart?
I think from comment 17 that this is known to be on restart and not on
upgrade. But to make sure there is no misunderstanding, here are the
steps I take to reproduce this:
1. Start firefox, enter about:config, set middlemouse.contentLoadURL to true
2. middlemouse-paste a URL to a window, it loads the URL ()
3. Stop firefox, check the 'prefs.js' file:
$ grep middle prefs.js
user_pref("middlemouse.contentLoadURL", true);
4. Start firefox, the setting is gone from the about:config and the
'prefs.js' file:
$ grep middle prefs.js
$
5. middlemouse-paste a URL to a window, it does nothing.
I can get this working by disabling the "Ubuntu Firefox Modifications" add-on.
Not sure why that did not work for the reporter of Bug #784542. Possibly that
some other setting is in conflict? I normally disable:
browser.tabs.opentabfor.middleclick
middlemouse.openNewWindow
