GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 531953
All saved passwords are lost upon updating to xulrunner-based galeon
Last modified: 2008-10-09 02:54:22 UTC
I just installed galeon-2.0.5-1.fc9.i386 from Fedora 9 which is built with xulrunner-1.9-0.60.beta5.fc9.i386. All of my saved passwords were lost and galeon refuses to save any new passwords or record information about passwords sites (i.e. whether to ask or not). "Edit"->"Personal Data"->"Passwords" and "Edit"->"Personal Data"->"Password Sites" have no rows present. I assume this is collateral damage relating to building with xulrunner 1.9.
You could add that to https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=443518 "Lots of issues with galeon in F9"
This should be fixed in galeon 2.0.7 (in Fedora 9 update-testing).
Fixed by the changes in 2.0.7
