Same thing happened with Thunderbird (MozillaThunderbird to

Yep. Same thing here. It's in the Changelog.

But am I supposed to have both folders? Shouldn't one of them (the old
one) have been deleted when the previous versions of Firefox (and
Thunderbird) were removed? Or are they still used for some reason (and
if so, then why do I have to have a new folder)?

Portage does not seem to be very good at cleaning up after itself after such changes. Files and directories from unmerged packages are frequently left on the disk. I do a manual clean-up from time to time.


Seems to me that something's a bit wonky somewhere, but thought I'd
check here to see if

1) anybody else is seeing this

Yes.

2) anybody knows a reason this configuration makes sense/is valid

before posting a bug.

Well, the change is documented as I stated above.


Be lucky,


Neil
