Issue 1676: Cannot import from minefield (locale, or nightly build, or
non-default profile location, or what, issue?)
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1676
New issue report by stazybohorn:
I 'm using the latest minefield nightlies (3.1b1pre), with an installer
build (not a zip build), and chrome does not provide an option to import
any data from my profile.
(Of course, neither did it for my opera, safari for windows, or k-meleon,
so that's another issue).
Then I read somewhere that maybe its a mix up with locales... So, I tried
the locale switch with the quick locale switcher extension in minefield; no
luck...
My OS locale is Greek, my Windows interface and Firefox interface is
English.
Without changing anything in Fx, chrome starts an installer in Greek,
ending up with a setup with an English-UI, and nowhere my fx profile to be
traced...
I uninstall chrome, I delete its folder in local settings/app data/google,
switch the fx locale to Greek with the extension proposed, restart fx,
download chrome again, with exactly the same result. No Firefox in the
'import from' options...
i don't get it why locale should interfere with the setup (which I doubt)...
Then, someone said "is your profile and/or Firefox in a non-default
location?" Yes my profile is in a non-default location.
Again, why should this be a problem, when profile.ini contains all that is
needed to locate it?
I even cleared the fx cookies from google chrome, between testing, no luck
ever.
