Title:
  Firefox cannot back up or save bookmarks

Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I am finally getting around to curating bookmarks that have
  accumulated since I was running Caldera -- perhaps as much as 20
  years.  Mostly I'm getting rid of massive duplication of folders and
  bookmarks.  I've been saving backups copies as I go to allow me to
  recover if I do something stupid.

  Suddenly, backups no longer work.  From "show all bookmarks" ->
  "Import and backup" i can select either backup or export and all seems
  normal, but no backup is actually created.  If I watch carefully, I
  can see the requested file being created with size 0, but it
  disappears within a few seconds.

  Since I have several profiles, I am able to verify that the
  places.sqlite file can be moved to a different profile, the bookmarks
  move with it, and the problem goes with it too.

  The file is about 10 MB, and not in a format for the ubuntu pastebin.
  If I cannot attach it, I'll need instructions.
