[21:17] <deb88> Hello, does anyone know how to install firefox twice on ubuntu without the installations sharing the same profile manager? (I don't understand how two installations from the binary in separate directories would share anything...)
[21:37] <gQuigs> deb88: they search for the same profile in .mozilla
[21:37] <gQuigs> deb88: you could always use Nightly which defaults to it's own profile directory
[21:42] <deb88> So both the profile and profile manager are stored in .mozilla... Is there a way to specify where the profiles and profile manager are saved?
[21:43] <deb88> On Windows I'm able to use Portable Firefox to separate installations completely (and run them at the same time with -no-remote).
[21:45] <gQuigs> from firefox --help...
[21:45] <gQuigs>   -P <profile>       Start with <profile>.
[21:45] <gQuigs>   --profile <path>   Start with profile at <path>.
[21:57] <deb88> OK, I think I get it: when i install firefox, before the first start up there is no profile, so on the first and subsequent starts I simply specify the profile location (which installs the Profile Manager at that location).
[22:05] <deb88> ls
[22:17] <deb88> That works, thanks.
[22:19] <deb88> Any idea if firefox shares any data between separate profiles, or if there are other components like perhaps "flash cookies" that will share data?
[22:35] <gQuigs> I don't think they share anything if you have a separate profile
[22:35] <gQuigs> no idea bout flash though
