When using the Migration Wizard to Import the IE Setting to a new Profile in Trunk it imports the IE Bookmarks, but the default Firefox Bookmarks "About us","Get involved" etc are deleted. Also the Bookmarks Toolbar is empty - no Getting Started Bookmark or Latest Headlines RSS Feed. The File -> Import Feature works fine, so its related to the Migration Wizzard. Will try to find a regression range.

> Will try to find a regression range. I think the regression is when we turned on places-bookmarks, and fx 2 did not do this. See bug #386678 for some details. I agree, this is something we should fix for fx 3.

Maybe there's a relation with bug 381365.
also, watch out for bug 387830, that seems to cause Migration to take a few minutes to complete.

Related to bug 261016? (only that bug talks about deleting of only the bookmarks toolbar items) And see comment 1 in that bug, it seems like replacing the bookmarks toolbar contents was done on purpose.

carsten, can you try again now that bug #386678 is fixed? I think this is really a dup of that bug, which dietrich just fixed.
