Public bug reported:
Each time a new FireFox version comes out, I install it, and then end up
un-installing it, as it is unable to finish loading up my windows and
tabs. When this happened the first time, with version 29, I had to
search the internet to find a version 28 for Ubuntu that I could
install. Since then, I just keep it in Downloads, and re-install that
one with GDebi when the newest FF again doesn't work...
I don't know what the problem is, but something basic changed with
version 29, and remained that way ever since.
I will attach and add RecordMyDesktop recordings of both version 28
working, and version 32 not working.
