Mozilla Firebird stuff

[Brian Kelsay]

It would have been nice if when they packaged it up for the new Firefox release they got rid of the 
Phoenix cruft.  At least when building a Windows package you can find and replace directories with 
new names and add autodetection for stuff like old versions of Netscape.  Then if you need the 
directory structure you can add it, otherwise don't put it in.  I'm not sure how much of this you 
can do with a .deb or .rpm, as I've never packaged one up, but I know you could with an install 
script in shell scripting.  You can put conditional statements in bash scripts can't you?  Like 
grep for directory name and rename, if not exist then end this command.

Yes, but isn't it nice to know that the structure is there
in case perhaps perchance you might eventually someday need it?

Naturally!

"So I pick up the ball and throw it to Naturally."

No, you throw it to Who!

"I don't know!"

P.S. Now that Firebird is Firefox, you'll get a few more dozen directories.
