Thanks hugely !!  Export on this Gentoo system works as described,
but import on the other system (Mageia) fails & asks for a bug report.
However, it is easy to use the created file to add bookmarks by hand
(click on each desired link & they open in Firefox there,
whence they cb easily bookmarked on that Firefox).

I want to set up Mageia on my HDD as an emergency resource
in case my Gentoo system on SSD fails one day
(I want to be able to use the Internet etc, while I get a new SSD,
& my ancient stand-by machines are no longer capable).
The process is reminding me all the time why I use Gentoo (big smile).
