That's interesting. It didn't work a couple of years ago, perhaps it's been fixed.
Still leaves that initial GUI profile setup.
- notafox 1y agoYou don't need GUI to create profiles. ./firefox -CreateProfile "profile-name /home/user/.mozilla/firefox/profile-path/"
- Brybry 1y agoThis is a good catch and does indeed work. -CreateProfile "profile-name" also works and will use the default profile path.
- notafox 1y agoKeep it mind, though, if you don't specify path, the profile directory name would be: random_string + '.' + "profile-name" That could prove inconvenient for navigation. If you want predictable, non-random directory names, you'll have to specify it.
- bluebarbet 1y agoUseful. This is not documented in the manfile or command help text, at least for the ESR release.
