Public bug reported:
$ lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 9.04
Release: 9.04
firefox package version: 3.0.11+build2+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.9.04.1
When I try to open a new firefox instance, for instance if I want to
switch to another profile:
$ firefox -p -no-remote
... I expect firefox to open in a new instance and to open the profile
manager.
What happens instead is that some script or whatever shows a dialog
window (see attached image file) telling me firefox is already running
and not responding, which is partly a lie. It is running, but it is
indeed responsive -- I just want to open up a new instance. My use case
is misunderstood.
Removing the -p switch does not change anything.
