As per 
https://gitlab.postmarketos.org/postmarketOS/pmaports/-/blob/602f1a6131f68ca4af0930c560d34f48aa36350b/main/mobile-config-firefox/APKBUILD

We only need to copy these files to /usr/lib/librewolf

$ dpkg -L firefox-esr-mobile-config  |grep lib
/usr/lib
/usr/lib/firefox-esr
/usr/lib/firefox-esr/defaults
/usr/lib/firefox-esr/defaults/pref
/usr/lib/firefox-esr/defaults/pref/mobile-config-prefs.js
/usr/lib/firefox-esr/mobile-config-autoconfig.js


I tried to copy these two files to to corresponding locations in 
/usr/lib/librewolf but on the desk, it seemed to have no effect.

firefox-esr can be resized to very small sizes by librewolf seems to be 
stuck at a minimum width (before and after copying these files).

So I'm not sure what else is needed to support librewolf. I wonder if 
LibreWolf is not looking at /usr/lib/librewolf and instead might only be 
looking at .mozilla/librewolf or ~/.librewolf

Screenshot of firefox-esr and librewolf attached (the right side is 
actually librewolf - seems like a bug in the build which was fixed in 
stable but not in sid so the logo and name was shown as firefox).
