[JamesKB]

Sigh... the newest Firefox ver 60.0.1 STILL does not work with Firejail.

You can also try the latest version of firejail - 0.9.54
https://sourceforge.net/projects/fireja ... /firejail/

Purge the old version first, then install the new one. Depending on which version you have installed, you may need to first

Code: Select all

sudo firecfg --clean

then

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get purge firejail

then, assuming the new version is in your Downloads directory:

Code: Select all

cd Downloads
sudo dpkg -i firejail_0.9.54_1_amd64.deb

then to fix a sound problem with PulseAudio

Code: Select all

firecfg --fix-sound

then log out and log back in

At this point you can run firefox in firejail by putting firejail before firefox in the launch command, or you can install the whole list of configuration profiles by

Code: Select all

sudo firecfg

however, installing all the profiles causes a problem with xed, xplayer, and xreader which can be worked around by deleting those symlinks from /usr/local/bin.
