Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: mozilla-firefox

If you go under Edit > Preferences > Advanced > Update and choose "Ask
Me what I want to do" the corresponding radio button group is disabled,
so the setting cannot be changed.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Start Firefox
2. Click  Edit > Preferences to bring up preferences dialog
3. Click  Advanced > Update
4. Under "When updates to firefox are found" choose "Ask Me what I want to do"
5. The "When updates to firefox are found" becomes disabled (see included screenshot) and the setting cannot be changed back again

I expect the radio buttons under "When updates to firefox are found" to
remain active.

The buttons remain inactive even after Firefox is restarted.

This does not appear to be an upstream bug, since Firefox 3.0.1 does not
have this issue under Windows.

Firefox version: 
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.0.1) Gecko/2008072820 Firefox/3.0.1 

Firefox package version:
3.0.1+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.8.04.3

Ubuntu version: Ubuntu 8.04.1 AMD64 Desktop
