Re: [trinity-users] Flash 11 + Firefox 13 = badness

On 2012/06/11 06:38 (GMT-0600) Marvin L Jones composed: You can install as many Firefox or SeaMonkey versions as you care to. Just download the bz2 archives from any of Mozilla.org's ftp mirrors, and unpack them to separate directories in /usr/local or somewhere in $HOME. Sharing profiles is a bad idea, so separate ones for each version should be created and maintained. Running multiple versions is also possible, and instructions for all this are on both Mozillazine and Mozilla.org. To make starting them easier, edit your application starter to add new entries that include the full pathname of the executable and '-P <profilename>' in the command field for each additional installation you've created. Usually I've found that such installations will not find any installed plugins. If you like that, you need do nothing more to set up each additional. If you want them to find plugins, create symlinks in their plugin dirs from the global plugin files you do want them to find. Not creating one to libflashplayer.so means FF won't crash on Flash pages, while it can remain available to the package manager installed version to see if and when updates cause problems to stop. :-) -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
