Public bug reported:
Made a clean profile in firefox 21 and started firefox.
Browsed launchpad.net and mozilla.org.
Quit firefox and restarted it, browsing launchpad.net and mozilla.org again.
Went to about:cache and was surprised to find none of the entries listed in the
disk cache were actually accessible.
The disk cache entries were not accessible because the Cache directory and its
contents no longer exist in the profile. They were deleted, i.e. the Cache
directory and its subdirectories no longer exist.
I noticed firefox's JS Cache Deleter thread was running at the same time as
firefox.
Is there a bug in JSCD that could cause deletion of the Cache directory?
This is in firefox 21.0+build2-0ubuntu0.12.04.3 in Ubuntu 12.04 Precise
Never seen this sort of thing in previous FF versions. Regression? If
you de-tag regression-update, please explain why.
