While that is a useful and informative account of the reasoning behind the problem, I would respectfully suggest that Firefox's inability (a) to shut down gracefully, giving time to save work and (b) to reopen the tabs are indeed bugs. It doesn't even restart itself, though it says it will.
As a workaround I have dumped Ubuntu Firefox and shifted to Mozilla, Updating it is more involved but less annoying. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1964997 Title: Firefox updates uncontrollably To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/1964997/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
