I just re-ran full-upgrade (on the 23.10 system) because WineHQ had released a 
9.0rc1, this tome I didn't see the waterfox prompt, I guess because it is (for 
now) fully updated

I've always been which "UpGrade" is best in my case (upgrade, dist-upgrade or 
full-upgrade) I went with "full" because it removes (most) unused apps
