Is it possible to diable the automatic update feature and prevent it being re-enabled from the preferences dialog by editing a config file?

Id like to do a custom version of FF for our machines (Linux based) which prevents the auto update mechanism working and prevents the user re-enabling it. Any updates would be done by the Linux .deb package management system.

Is there a way to do with by editing the config files of the default binary version or do I need to build my own from source?
