*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 31746 ***

The expected behavior is:
1. run
firefox -P alternativeProfile --no-remote
it spawns a firefox with the alternative profile
2. run
firefox
or
firefox -P defaultProfile
it must spawn the default profile and run it as the main one

but in Ubuntu it fails, in windows it worked as expected, but not in Ubuntu. to spawn the main or default by
firefox -P defaultProfile --no-remote
works, but the --no-remote flag makes it not work as expected, because new links from third party applications look for a firefox with not this flag

the -a flag works, but it is not documented, i can't find what does it
do, nor the %u flag
