OS: Fedora 14 x86_64 Firefox 4 today found an upgrade to 4.0.1 and offered to download it and install.

However, it ends up trying to connect to updates server, this phase never ends.

Does the automatic upgrade work in Forefox 4 for Linux?

See:

Remove the files in the updates and updates\0 folder. You may need to delete active-update.xml and updates.xml as well if present.

You can probably find the updates folder in the Firefox program folder.
