I also have troubles with this. The worst thing is that firefox often
after
such update dies, without saving the tabs etc. as it does when it is killed.
And because it dies after update anyway, I would just suggest to put a
"killall firefox" in PREIN script. Because this will trigger the firefox
saving mechanism and would not cause a data loss.
Regarding arguments - you should know as you are updating - this is not
true, if you are using e.g. updatesd and set it to update automaticaly.
After this burned me the first time in fedora 10 (?) I made my script
that fires off my yum update killall firefox exactly as you suggest.
I know that killall firefox in PREIN sounds outrageous but it would be
*strictly superior* to what fedora is allowing to happen today.
