Just updated to FF73 in linux and the browser crashes immediately on startup
Only in Linux, fortunately. I'm using FFox 73.0 in Windows 7 to write this. I'm running Slacko puppy ver 6.3.0. Until now, FFox has run in it flawlessly. No access to safe mode in this OS. Holding down the <Shift> key starts Geany editor. I've run the FF script in console and have a screenshot.jpg file available for upload. Only a few lines, then the Ffox crash reporter appears. Not too useful. I'll try restoring FFox from a backup and see if I missed something.

Sorry for the tardiness. Health issues that needed resolving as well. Found a bunch of reports dating back a ways. Not sure what the old ones were about now, but likely missing libraries or power failures. The first two listed below are the recent update failure
