Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: firefox
I am running Firefox (4.0~rc2+build3+nobinonly-0ubuntu2) for the first
time after upgrading from mozillateam/firefox-next PPA (4.0~rc1+build1
+nobinonly-0ubuntu1~mfn~maverick1) to Natty.
xulapp-profilemigrator popped up and asked if I wanted to import my old
4.0 profile and I said yes. It started working away, then suddenly the
dialogue disappeared and all CPU and disk I/O stopped. The process is
still running but it is not doing anything. When I try to do a strace
on it, I just get "restart_syscall(<... resuming interrupted call ...>"
It appears to have successfully moved my old .mozilla/firefox directory
to firefox.replaced, copied firefox-4.0 over to firefox (they are
identical), and then just stopped.
I'm not sure if it is supposed to do any more than this? It has not
migrated my prefs.js, extensions.ini, nor several binary files which
still refer to '.mozilla/firefox-4.0' in several instances. Is this
okay? I realize this is a minor issue since I was using a beta release
to begin with, but since someone took the time to write the tool, it
should at least work correctly, or give an indication if there is an
error! I have saved a backup of my entire (700M!) .mozilla directory so
I can repeat this whole process for debugging purposes if necessary.
