[arch] Arrow keys not working in new firefox - solved

[Tobias Kieslich]

Hi,

with the latest release of mozilla-firefox there is an issue which
forbids to use the arrow keys within textfields and the location or the
google bar. While you can use your mouse to set the pointer/cursor
according to your wishes it's just annoying that your arrow keys doesn't
work. Unfortunately there is no way t handle that from inside the
firefox-package 'cuz the problem is located in the compreg.dat file
within your profile. The packages doesn't have access to your private
data within ~
So the only proper workaround for that problem is to delete the file
which is located in

~/.mozilla/firefox/random.name/compreg.dat

As far as I tested it you won't loose any data according to this, since
everything else, such as passwords, bookmarks, cookies, history etc. is
stored in other files. Firefox will just create a new compreg.dat and
that's it.
