I've hit this:
	https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1612717

(for TB, but the question is general, so i send this o both lists).

Because the bug is annoying, i'm rollbacking from 68.5.0 to 68.4.1; but
i've discovered that also for these 'minor downgrade', downgrade
protection, eg:
	https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/understanding-depth-profile-installation

and so i was forced to set also:
	MOZ_ALLOW_DOWNGRADE=1

That is rather a 'draconian' solution for situation like these, i
think nothing changed in profiles management between minor revision.


Could be that this 'downgrade protection' can be relaxed for minor
upgrades? Or a 'MOZ_ALLOW_MINOR_DOWNGRADE=1' ;-)


Thanks.
