Not for me. The few bookmarks I have are still there. But I'm using FF Sync. So that's maybe the saviour there. vinz. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

No problem here.

I've backed up up my Firefox user profile just to be on the safe side, but everything is still there after the upgrade and also after closing and restarting Firefox.

Cf. https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/821486. By the way, no problems with bookmarks after the update to FF 78.0.2 at all. Regards, Frank -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

Not to drive the thread off the original topic¹, but, Patrick, perhaps you have libavcodec57 or libavcodec56 installed from Packman already? In that case, Firefox, upon not finding libavcodec.so.58 (because with ffmpeg 4.3.x pkgs it has been renamed to libavcodec.so.58.91), reverts to using one of those older libraries. When the fixed Firefox is published on TW next, you will not need either of those older versions. Running « zypper se -si libavcodec » will tell you what version(s) of the library you have on your system.
