Same as for Mitch, it is a fresh install of Kubuntu Gutsy with the i386 desktop CD, Tribe 2 (fresh as in formatted partition).
apt-cache policy firefox yields: firefox: Installed: 2.0.0.4+2-0ubuntu3 Candidate: 2.0.0.4+2-0ubuntu3 Version table: *** 2.0.0.4+2-0ubuntu3 0 500 http://nl.archive.ubuntu.com gutsy/main Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status I can actually still reproduce the error by just relocating the .mozilla directory and then opening firefox. For completeness, I just noticed that the error I get is not 100% the same, in the failure code I have twice a "c" instead of "8" at the end. The complete error for me is: Profile Creation Failed Profile couldn't be created. Probably the chosen folder isn't writable. [Exception...
