with FF-1.0.x I used options "-P myprofile" and "-ProfileManager" and they used to work but now it simply opens another window.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. launch firefox (with default profile)
2. type in terminal "firefox -P existing-non-default-profile"
Actual Results:
opens new window with old profile
Expected Results:
open new firefox with selected profile
the same happens with -ProfileManager.
it could be specific to debian, I don't know who created the startup script..
