Bookmarks do not save after reloading firefox

[minstrel756]

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

When I edit my bookmarks which I can click on directly under the address bar, close firefox and reopen it, the changes I did do not save and it reverts back to the way it was before I made any changes. Most commonly, I try to delete bookmarks I no longer use and then make new bookmarks that I will be using commonly for my new school semester. When I close the program after making these changes, they do not save, and when I reopen firefox, I have the same old bookmarks I never use and none of the new ones are in the bookmark toolbar.

I'm using Ubunto 8.10, and I do not know what version of the package I am using. Wait a tick, let me try something. . . .

_____________:~$ apt-cache policy firefox

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
I think that's what you are looking for.

Thanks,
