Description crusaderky 2003-09-05 14:36:06 UTC

I'm using Mozilla 1.4 (installed with emerge from sources), as a normal user. I've only 
got one profile. 
I open mozilla, and, with that opened, mozilla --mail. mozilla --profile opens instead, and 
if I try to click on my profile, it says "profile already in use". 
This doesn't happen if I open just browser sessions, nor if I open mozilla --mail first. 
 
I had RedHat 9 with Mozilla 1.4 installed from mozilla.org before, and it did it also when 
opening a second browser window. 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.#mozilla 
2.leave that open 
3.#mozilla --mail 
Actual Results:  
profile manager opens, and the "profile already in use" error is issued. 

Expected Results:  
It should open any number of mozilla mail and/or mozilla session (it works in win2k).

Try using mozilla -mail instead of --mail

It's ok now. However, it's a really strange behaviour that should be fixed...
