Operating system :  Linux mintdebian 3.2.0-2-amd64 	Linux Mint Debian Edition Release:	1
Firefox 14.0.1


In LMDE the Firefox profile folder located  in the default  ~/.mozilla
location can't be accessed -as it should normally be- from the
about:support page clicking the Open Directory button.

Steps to reproduce: from the Firefox menu
button-->Help-->Troubleshooting  Information (or type about:support in
the URL bar),then press the Open Directory button.

What happens:nothing.

What should happen:the Firefox profile folder located in the default
directory home/user/.mozilla should open.

Reproducible:always

Possibly related issue:the "Open Data Folder" in  the Tools menu and
"Show Files" entry in the Tools menu in the right-click context menu  of
the  Scrapbook addon also do nothing instead of opening the related
directory
