https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=243037 ------- Comment #1 from wolfgang@rosenauer.org 2007-02-07 05:39 MST ------- IIRC this is known and "wanted" upstream. I'm pretty sure there is also a (maybe closed) bug about it here somewhere. At least that's discussed for example here: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=308076 This says basically: Firefox up to 1.5.0.x: MOZ_NO_REMOTE=1 firefox -profilemanager Firefox since 2.0 (additional option): firefox -profilemanager -no-remote -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

It is probably good enough to add the "-no-remote" option to the --help output. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
