It looks like the only way to get the extension data out of the old Firefox profiles is to query some sqlite databases that are located in `<profile_dir>/storage/default`. I found one of the important extension directories, but querying the database just returns gibberish.
For anyone else dealing with the problem, I'm wondering if it might be solvable by booting Ubuntu 18.04 from a thumb drive, installing the nightly Firefox version in it, loading the profiles there, exporting any needed data via the extension settings, and then importing it back into the stable version after booting from the hard drive again. I'll try it tomorrow. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1850529 Title: Crash after update to 71.0~b5+build1-0ubuntu0.16.04.1 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/1850529/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
