[nflug] firefox configuration problems

[Joe]

I have my own (latest) firefox 2.0.0.11) installed in /opt/firefox.  My
preferences, etc., are in my home directory.
When I select help from the menu bar, all the check for updates and
report broken etc. options are disabled.

I have app.update.enabled and app.update.auto set to true,
app.update.incompatible.mode set to 1 in about:config.

I do *not* have the distro version of firefox installed.  The only part
"in" the system is the English locale.

What am I missing?


TIA

Joe
