Just upgraded to firefox-1.0.1 without a hitch, until I tried to set the
profile from the command line - this invokes the profile manager
regardless of which profile is selected.
The firefox shell wrapper in /usr/X11R6/bin now parses flags/arguments
itself whereas before it just passed them through to firefox-bin.
However, it doesn't know about the -ProfileManager and -P options, and
assumes that any unknown flag doesn't take an argument. This is fine
for -ProfileManager, but obviously doesn't work for -P.
Ie:
% firefox -P default
/usr/X11R6/bin/firefox: WARN, target: /home/jez/.mozilla/firefox/default not an URI/file/dir
The patch to fix this is trivial (but attached :-)
