Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/netblue30/firejail/issues/1272

My firefox directory is in /home and firejail is unable to run it. It outputs:

bin/bash: /home/user/firefox/firefox: No such file or directory
The problem is resolved if I put my entire firefox directory into /usr/bin, but that prevents self-updating. Placing only the firefox binary gives a XPCOM error.

In /etc/firejail/firefox.profile add a "whitelist ~/firefox" line at the end of the file. Also, if you have in your profile a "noexec ${HOME}", comment it out (add a # in front of the line).

That worked out just fine, although it didn't want to work if I hid the directory by ~/.firefox. It's alright though, thanks for the simple fix.
