It appears to me that the commands have changed. This is what FF-22 had:

The symlinks were done:
‘/usr/bin/firefox’ -> ‘../lib/firefox-22.0/firefox’
‘/usr/lib/firefox-22.0/xulrunner’ -> ‘../xulrunner-22.0’
‘/usr/lib/firefox-22.0/plugins’ -> ‘../mozilla/plugins’

something else, which is by no means impossible.

Since my system is doing what I need with Adobe Flash, I'm willing to drop
this line. Unless there is something you want me to do?
