<![CDATA[Autoupdate issues]]>On Linux 18.04 I am using Opera webbrowser (v 68.0.3618.125). Everything is working fine, but every now and then, my browser crashes due to too many active autoupdate processes. When looking in my system monitor, I counted at least 10 to 15 instances, some dating back to 2 days ago. Can I disable or extend the period it is checking for autoupdates?

Regards, Robert.
