Hello Stan,

I do not experience this behaviour with Fedora 37. The only thing that happens to Firefox is that

 it requires to be restarted when the application gets an upgrade using the DNF way.

In that case, I hit "Restart Firefox" button that comes with the message and my Firefox closes and reopens in the couple of seconds and I am using its newer version without the need to restart the whole machine.

I never upgrade via Software because it takes so long and needs restarting.

This became more common, and strace sometimes worked and sometimes not.
But what works every time is to start chromium, then close it.  After
that, nightly starts every time.  There must be a missing library or
setting that chromium sets up, and then firefox can use it.  I haven't
looked further.
