+</I>Well, as there are mostly no bigger changes like in %files, can't an update of
+those addons
+be scripted or automated halfway? So someone just needs to push this prior to a
+Firefox update?
+
+Not saying i have an opinion pro or against packaged addons, but it is really a
+nuisance
+as those who do the Firefox update also need to update all those addons, which
+is unfair,
+seems to me if it's not the importer/maintainer of those addons who does the
+update.
