It should have taken me to https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/search-tools/

I have this bug in Firefox 66.0.3 in MX Linux 18.2. I was just testing Debian Buster's pre-release distro which has Firefox 66.0.1 and :Find more search engines: takes me to https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/search-tools/ as expected.

Works for me in a brand new profile. Likely an issue with the version provided by your distro.

I have this bug in Firefox 66.0.3 in MX Linux 18.2.

Can you re-test with a version downloaded from https://www.mozilla.org ?

@:Gijs (he/him) I did that and am taken to the add-ons page as expected, so you guys are correct: it's an issue with the Firefox package provided with my distro. You can close this and sorry if I wasted anyone's time. :)

No worries, thanks for getting back to us so quickly!
