Firefox: Add-Ons window constantly refreshes (too often)

[Vadym Yusanenko]

Linux 2.6.28-14-generic #47-Ubuntu SMP Sat Jul 25 00:28:35 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux
===================================================
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 9.04
Release: 9.04
Codename: jaunty

What i expected to happen: Open Add-Ons window, scroll addons list and check for updates :)
What happened instead: Add-Ons window constantly refreshes, it is nearly impossible to scroll through list if you have more than 5 addons installed - after refresh scrollbar returns to selected item in list, All lists - Extensions, Themes, etc. are affected by this bug - it is extremely annoying, however does not a security or performance issue . I tried to disable all addons and compiz, but it doesn't affect at all. Also in Fedora there are no such issue, so it is obviously Ubuntu bug. I don't know for sure but I think I noticed this bug in 8.10. I attached .ogv to clarify my issue. Hope it helps. Thanks...

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Judging from your description, I am going to assign this bug to the firefox package in hopes that it will have a faster response. If you believe that I have chosen the wrong package, please change your bug to the correct one. Good luck on getting it fixed!

the addon window is controled by ubufox
Thanks for the bug report.
Can you try to disable ubufox only and test.
