Just to clarify, your profile is stored under
/home/yourusername/.mozilla/firefox/<random stuff>.default/

Honestly, I back up my .mozilla and .thunderbird directories when
upgrading and or migrating to another computer.

Of course, when going to the next version of Debian or Ubuntu, I almost
always do an in place upgrade.  Less pain (for me) that way.
