what or where is this "profiledir:"? after sudo updatedb today, I find this:
gene@coyote:~$ locate prefs.js
/home/amanda/.mozilla/firefox/nz58vim6.default-esr/prefs.js
/home/gene/.local/share/digikam/QtWebEngine/Default/user_prefs.json

/home/gene/bin/firefox/defaults/pref/channel-prefs.js
/usr/lib/firefox-esr/defaults/pref/channel-prefs.js
/usr/share/thunderbird/defaults/pref/channel-prefs.js

I count 8 prefs.js in the above list, so which one is actually being 
talked about here?
