[Bug 204699] [NEW] Firefox profile dir should be ~/.firefox instead of ~/.mozilla/firefox

[Darwin Award Winner]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

Since we are on the cusp of an incompatible update of firefox from 2.0
to 3.0, the two versions of firefox are already set to use separate
profile directories. Why not take this opportunity to change the profile
directory to ~/.firefox for Firefox 3.0 while leaving Firefox 2 with
it's old profile directory at ~/.mozilla/firefox? This has the added
advantage that it avoids the future problem of migrating the firefox 3
profile from ~/.mozilla/firefox-3.0 to ~/.mozilla/firefox when Firefox 3
is released.

** Affects: firefox-3.0 (Ubuntu)
