Bug Description

Binary package hint: mozilla-firefox

I had suse running before I installed feisty yesterday. I reused my home partition for feisty. When I opened Firefox all the extension appear on the add-ons console but werent showing up on the main window. I was getting an error installLocation has no properties. I googled it and found that somebody had already reported a bug and a patch has been posted. https://bugs.launchpad.net/firefox/+bug/65609 . I added that line to that file mentioned and restarted FF. A new message came up saying oldLocation has no properties line 7560. So following the example I modified the line to be
if (oldLocation.proirity && forceReplace || newLocation.priority < oldLocation.priority)

instead. After FF restart I stopped getting errors and the extensions popped up.

This sounds like a problem with sue's firefox profile not being the same as ubuntus, I dont see this as a firefox issue. Can you please try using a new profile instead of fixing it and let me know if it still happens.
