Public bug reported: Binary package hint: firefox-3.5
Originally reported as a Firefox bug: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=510403 User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.1.3pre) Gecko/20090813 Ubuntu/9.04 (jaunty) Shiretoko/3.5.3pre Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.1.3pre) Gecko/20090813 Ubuntu/9.04 (jaunty) Shiretoko/3.5.3pre /usr/bin/firefox --> /opt/firefox/firefox (Ubuntuzilla; FF 3.5.1) /usr/bin/firefox-3.5 --> /usr/lib/firefox-3.5.3pre/firefox.sh Original FF session command: > /usr/bin/firefox-3.5 -P akDefault -no-remote %u When I do a Restart from this session, the newly started session starts using /usr/bin/firefox with the same profile. I believe this started happening after the last nightly update. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Have 2 installs of FF -- see the versions in the Details above. 2. Launch FF 3.5.3pre as explained in the Details. 3. Restart. Actual Results: See Details above. Expected Results: Restart should relaunch using the same command as the original session. What appears to be happening is that /usr/bin/firefox-3.5 (see symbolic links in the description) causes /opt/firefox/firefox-bin (see description) to launch, when it should be launching the appropriate executable in /usr/lib/firefox-3.5.3pre/. Besides Restart, the same thing happens if FF is shutdown after an add-on update, and started anew manually. If an add-on update hasn't happened in the terminated session then the next launch uses the correct executable. ** Affects: firefox-3.5 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: restart shellscript startup -- Firefox 3.5.3pre: Restart launches /usr/bin/firefox regardless of the original launch command. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/416627 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
