Public bug reported:
On bionic, Firefox was upgraded to 67.0.1 this morning (7 June).
When I launch firefox I've a message like this
"Using an older version of Firefox can corrupt bookmarks and browsing
history already saved to an existing profile. To protect your
information, create a new profile for this installation of Firefox."
And I've just one option: Create a new profile.
Of course, this new profile ignore all my bookmarks, identification,
password, etc.
I've tried:
-1 Erase the new profile folder and the installs.ini file, rewrite the
profiles.ini with the name of my old profile. Same problem.
-2 run firefox -p into a terminal to choose my old profile. Same
problem, rejected.
It's strange the message box is saying "Using an older version of
Firefox", why old ?
