Public bug reported:
A freshly updated firefox (to 46) does not work anymore if there is
already a firefox profile. Basically everything is broken: sessions,
menus even browsing by typing in a web address.
As a work around (sort of), one can delete the profile (~/.mozilla) and start
fresh ... and lose all settings, extensions etc.
Or downgrade until this is fixed.
I get this issue on two machines running a fully updated xubuntu trusty.
