Title:
firefox : missing saved logins and passwords after upgrade to firefox
48 (Linux Mint)
Status in Linux Mint:
New
Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
Package: firefox
Version: 48.0+linuxmint2+rosa
Architecture: amd64
Build ID: 20160811171047
Linux Mint 17.3 Rosa
Steps to reproduce:
In firefox 47 I used to save logins and password and used master password.
After upgrade to firefox 48 list of saved logins became empty and "use master
password" became unchecked.
Actual results:
All saved logins and passwords disappeared. Go to
about:preferences#security, "Logins" section, "remember logins" box is checked
but the list of saved logins is empty. Also, the "use master password" box is
unchecked.
When I start firefox in safe mode --- all login and passwords are in
place. I do use master password---it is working as expected in safe
mode.
When I start firefox with all addons disabled --- password and logins
are still missing.
Same problem exists if I download and manually install firefox dpkg from
Ubuntu repository:
http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/f/firefox/firefox_48.0+build2-0ubuntu0.14.04.1_amd64.deb
Also, saved logins and passwords work properly when I use latest
binary firefox 48 (build id 20160726073904) x86_64 from the Mozilla
site.
Expected results:
Saved passwords and logins shouldn't disapear
