Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox

After installing one of several firefox addons, from addons.mozilla.org, or from the ubuntu repository (xul-ext-*), restarting firefox *twice*, it won't start again. For instance, install the package xul-ext-greasemonkey, and restart firefox twice.

This is on an amd64 architecture, in ubuntu lucid (10.4) development branch.
Also it might relate to xulrunner (currently xulrunner 1.9.1 is installed. Maybe xulrunner 1.9.2 is needed).
