Hi, |
2 |
As you may have heard, I've upgraded Firefox twice in the last two days |
3 |
(could have been three times, but I skipped one update). |
4 |
|
5 |
I'm compiling it, not using the bins. |
6 |
|
7 |
Well, somewhere between 1.0.5 (where I started) and 1.0.6-r2 (where I |
8 |
ended up) the folder in /usr/lib changed from |
9 |
|
10 |
MozillaFirefox |
11 |
|
12 |
to |
13 |
|
14 |
mozilla-firefox |
15 |
|
16 |
Same thing happened with Thunderbird (MozillaThunderbird to |
17 |
mozilla-thunderbird). |
18 |
|
19 |
Now, everything works (that's not the problem), and I know that |
20 |
mozilla-firefox is the folder being used (because I backed up my |
21 |
searchplugins folder before upgrading, and moved it back to |
22 |
mozilla-firefox before opening the upgraded firefox, and all my search |
23 |
engine plugins are now being shown). |
24 |
|
25 |
But am I supposed to have both folders? Shouldn't one of them (the old |
26 |
one) have been deleted when the previous versions of Firefox (and |
27 |
Thunderbird) were removed? Or are they still used for some reason (and |
28 |
if so, then why do I have to have a new folder)? |
29 |
|
30 |
Seems to me that something's a bit wonky somewhere, but thought I'd |
31 |
check here to see if |
32 |
|
33 |
1) anybody else is seeing this |
34 |
|
35 |
2) anybody knows a reason this configuration makes sense/is valid |
36 |
|
37 |
before posting a bug. |
