Details

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:30.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/30.0 (Beta/Release)
Build ID: 20140205030203

Steps to reproduce:

1) download 29.0a2 - 06.02.14 
2) un-arch in directory
3a) create launcher icon (KDE) to ~/mozilla/Aurora29/firefox -P
3b) from console: nav to dir; typed bash firefox -P


Actual results:

Nothing.
No errors
No process attempt


Expected results:

Firefox Aurora should launch (start)
The command "bash firefox -P" would try to run firefox as a shell script, which is it not.  Use the following instead:

bash -c "firefox -P"

Fell free to reopen this bug if you still have issues.
