Igor (xrevolver) wrote : firefox : missing saved logins and passwords after upgrade to Linux Mint 48

Package: firefox
Version: 48.0+linuxmint2+rosa
Architecture: amd64
Linux Mint 17.3 Rosa

Steps to reproduce:

In firefox 47 I used to save logins and password and used master password.
After upgrade to firefox 48 list of saved logins is empty and "use master password" is unchecked.

Actual results:
All saved logins and passwords disappeared. Go to about:preferences#security, "Logins" section, "remember logins" box is checked by the list of saved logins is empty. Also, the "use master password" box is unchecked.

When I start firefox in safe mode --- all login and passwords in place. When I start firefox with all addons disabled --- password and logins are still missing. I do use master password---it is working as expected in safe mode.

Also, saved logins and passwords work properly when I use binary firefox 48 x86_64 from the mozilla site. Probably bug in distribution (Ubuntu/Mint)

Expected results:

Saved passwords and logins shouldn't disapear
