I guess the space is in your local.properties file, at the end of the
line
install.dir=...

ant dev-setup should create one directory (firebug1.3/extensions) and
one file

That file contains a single line. It should be the full OS-dependent
path to branches/firebug1.3.

Yes, you'll not be happy. All you really need is that one file, just
do it by hand.
Also be sure you run the profile that contains the link file.

Find your profile directory, the one you set as install.dir. After you
run Firefox once on this profile, take a look at extensions.cache.
firebug1.3 should be listed as app-profile, abs%<path>. If not then
you did not succeed.

branches/firebug1.3 is the current development. trunk is not used.
