@sdeziel Exactly. To be honest, I have seen your ticket and effort you did. But I could not figure out what your version of the profile intended to fix, because that is not documented anywhere.

That could also be the reason why nobody merged it within more than a year. There's nobody to blaim for that, in my opinion. A maintainer maintaining stable releases should at least know what a change is supposed to fix.

My approach in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/1659988 documents each step and each issue which is supposed to be fixed.

That approach also is supposed to be minimal-invasive: Not more than documented, no refactoring.

I even would not argue that my patch somehow is better. Eventually, you fixed a lot more. I just don't know what it does because it's not documented.

Let's hope for the best, may at least one of the patches be merged. Personally, I don't care which, as long as things are finally fixed.
