Title:
Firefox 67 in Ubuntu 18.10 thinks it's an older version
Status in Mozilla Firefox:

Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Today I installed the Firefox 67 update on Ubuntu 18.04, then updated
to Ubuntu 18.10. After this, launching Firefox gave me a "Using an
older version of Firefox" message with only two options: create a new
profile or quit.
Apparently the Firefox 67 build for 18.10 thinks it's an older version
than the Firefox 67 build for 18.04.
For now I worked around the issue by manually installing the Firefox
67 build for Ubuntu 18.04, which did load the existing user profile
correctly.
