Multiple firefox versions

From Andreida
  • Firefox v2 download:

https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/2.0rc3/linux-i686/en-US/firefox-2.0rc3.tar.gz

  • missing libraries: (as root)
apt-get install libstdc++5
  • (not sure if needed) create extra profil with firefox v2
./firefox -ProfileManager
    • rename old one to be able to still use it
    • create a new one like: XUL
  • start the binary of the old firefox v2 directly
  • start the normal firfox with the "normal" profile
iceweasel %u -P Normal
