Greetings.
I've just switched from Ubuntu 8.10 to Kubuntu 9.04 and I was wondering if it would be possible to just copy my profiles from Firefox and Thunderbird directly into my ~/.mozilla/firefox and ~/.mozilla-thunderbird folders.
I know this practice is usually not recommended, but since the versions of both are identical (I've always kept both updated in my Ubuntu 8.10 installment) I was thinking that logically this should work with no problems, right?
I mean, OK, I have no problem in downloading and installing the extensions and themes for both, but things like mailboxes should be OK, right?
In case I'm wrong, which would be the right way to do it?
TIA,
