just an idea: copy your full folder ./mozilla somewhere (on a USB stick) then upgrade Firefox, don't start Firefox, then copy from the USB stick to your system and restart Firefox

No, I don't want to use it, I just want to use one profile and not to
have to reconfigure everything because a new version of firefox has

downgrading to version 66 I could have firefox working normaly without
any pain....
