And this is *still* not a good idea. As I said: just rename it to
/home/<username>/x.mozilla-x if you want to not use the existing
.mozilla directory.

That way if you screw something up you can just rename it back to
/home/<username>/.mozilla

Why do you keep insisting that the directory be deleated rather than
renamed, or at least backed up?
