835133 - No apparent way to disable "Software Update" popup.

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Toolkit :: Application Update, defect)

Description

[Chris Moller]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:17.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/17.0
Build ID: 20121128204232

Steps to reproduce:

Nothing


Actual results:

Every few hours, a popup pops up announcing "Update Available,"  interrupting my work.  After several days of this, I know there's an update available, and I'll get to it when I have the time.  Presumably, this is controlled by the Update tab under Advanced in preferences, and I could shut it off altogether.


Expected results:

There should be a button on the popup for ""Okay I Heard You" that makes the popup quit nagging.

You can select "Never check for updas" from Options -> Advanced -> Update.
This is not an issue. Closing as invalid.

So the options are either to take the risk of never checking or to accept being nagged several times a day?  There's no way to add a checkbox for, "Okay I heard you?"  That's ridiculous.
