[Bug 75758] Re: Firefox doesn't display new windows in new tabs despite option being set

[DarkMageZ]

I probably confirmed the bug. 
The steps for replication in comment 12 are still valid. 
I have been able to replicate this bug with every version of ubuntu firefox i have ever used since dapper flight 4.
I am currently rebuilding https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/2.0.0.3+1-0ubuntu2 under ubuntu feisty with the lines from comment 14 removed.

Changing the options does fix the problem. But that's not the point. The
point is that a poweruser or higher will install ubuntu. Check the
default options are ok via the nice gui and see it is set to open in a
new tab by default and not touch it. while the core thinks it is set to
open in new window...  see comment 13.

If Ubuntu wants the default setting to be open new windows in tabs, then
there will need to be something in their patches to set the options
shown in about:config properly by default.
