I am on FF 50, when I click "Upgrade Firefox", it checks for updates, and then tells me "Upgrade to 56", even though the newest is 72. And in FF 56, I can continue to upgrade to 72. Why is it mandatory to upgrade to 56 before upgrading to the latest release, and were there any update checkpoints like that in the past?

Nejsem si jistý, ale přímý skok z verze 50 na 72 asi není možný. Takže se to updatuje přes meziverzi 56, kde se měnily některé soubory.
