In the header of firecfg.config you mention a location of /etc/firejail/firecfg.config.
But by default it is installed in $LIBDIR/firejail/firecfg.config.
Which is supposed to be the correct location (i.e., is is intended to be edited by the user?)?

Sorry, it is in $LIBDIR/firejail/firecfg.config - non editable.

@netblue30 why it should be non-editable? I think that enabling/disabling specific apps from firecfg may solve #2097 and this config should be moved to /etc/firejail.

Yes, it's odd that a configuration file is being stored in $LIBDIR...why was that chosen in the first place? Why not store it in ${CFG} like firejail.config?

Relocate firecfg.config to /etc/firejail/

This should make it easier for users, and distributions, to customize
which programs they want firejail to wrap.

This should make it easier for users, and distributions, to customize
which programs they want firejail to wrap. Also fixed some
firecfg.cfg -> firecfg.config references.
