System:
Ubuntu MATE 17.10 (amd64)

Package version:
17.10.24

How to reproduce:
- log in with fresh user profile
- open Firefox
- change home page to whatever URL you choose
- quit Firefox
- restart Firefox

Expected behavior:
=> Firefox opens your selected home page

Actual behavior:
=> Firefox reverts to the default start page for Ubuntu MATE

Root cause:
/usr/lib/firefox/ubuntumate.cfg incorrectly uses pref() instead of defaultPref() to set the home page

And yes, I know this is likely marked as duplicate of #1605887, which reappeared in 17.10 despite having been fixed for previous versions.
I hope this can be sorted out before 17.10 officially gets out the door.
