Bug Description
System was upgraded from Xubuntu 14 to 16 by DVD. It wiped out many things, including the installation of Firefox ESR.
ESR was manually reinstalled, but there appears to be no integration with the former profiles. While they still exist, both Firefox Quantum and Firefox ESR see the exact same profiles. There appears to be no way to remedy the problem.
No crash is involved. If -profilemanager is used in Firefox, the same choices appear in both versions. This was not the case prior to the upgrade.
