That means that a bunch of good people may use one of my silly recipes that I stopped using in gnome desktops shortly thereafter I put it here.
This is a short recipe that describes another way to use multiple profiles and multiple versions of mozilla based browsers in gnome desktops. I tested this recipe a few times in debian wheezy with gnome2 --classic.
Install alacarte
$ sudo apt-get install alacarteAlacarte is a Gnome Menu Editor
Create iceweasel or firefox profiles
$ iceweasel -Por
$ firefox -PIn case you are using both browsers ( brandings ) any of the above commands should create compatible profiles that may be used by both.
Fireup alacarte
$ alacarte
Create in alacarte menus,submenus whatever ( optional )
Create within alacarte items and put in the command placeholder for every item something like the following
iceweasel -p some_profile_name --no-remoteor
firefox -p some_other_profile_name --no-remoteor
/path/to/some/other/version/of/mozilla/firefox -p yet_another_profile_name --no-remote
Many versions many profiles firefox linux Gnome
