That does exist in the form of an enterprise policy, `DisableAppUpdate`. It looks like you've already discovered it.

This will not help you. Background update is currently a Windows-only feature, so disabling it on Linux won't do anything.

It sounds like you are pretty confident that Firefox is updating you rather than the package manager. Is this because Firefox is updating when you do not expect it to? Are you seeing anything else to confirm this?

Could you also please gather some more information for me? Please navigate to Settings page (`about:preferences`) and find the "Update" section. Click on the "Show Update History" button. What time was the most recent update installed? Does this approximately match with the last time you saw a "Restart Required" page?
