[ubuntu-mono] [Bug 904594] Re: Tracking bug for Firefox 9 transition in Lucid/Maverick

[Mike Berkley]

I'm having trouble opening links from Thunderbird in Firefox 9.0.1, and
discovered that the problem is with Firefox.

Consider the following command:

    firefox http://www.ubuntu.com

If Firefox is already running, this should open the web site in a new
tab or window.  With 9.0.1, it opens the ProfileManager (I have multiple
profiles).  If I force a particular profile (with "-P default"), it
tells me that "Firefox is already running."

I did an ssh into another machine, and started  firefox-3.6.24 with
"-no-remote".  Now I have two Firefox sessions running, v9.0.1 on my
workstation and v3.6.24 on a remote machine.  Then, when I run "firefox
http://www.ubuntu.com" in an xterm on my workstation.  Lo and behold,
www.ubuntu.com is opened on the remote Firefox v3.6.24, NOT on the local
Firefox v9.0.1, which was actually started first.

Any ideas how to fix this?  I cannot roll out v9.0.1 to all my
Thunderbird users until this issue is resolved...
