Bug Description
Binary package hint: firefox
I tried to install firefox-3.5.
Before that I've done
sudo apt-get remove firefrox*
sudo apt-get remove xulrunner*
sudo apt-get autoremove
when I typed:
sudo apt-get install firefox-3.5
it tried to install firefox-3.0 also, so I did run adept and manually removed firefox-3.0 from autoselected packages
after creating manualy symlink from /usr/bin/firefox to /usr/bin/
Now I tried
sudo apt-get install sun-java6-plugin
but I can't pass thrugh because it pulls to install
firefox firefox-3.0 firefox-
The problem is in firefox metapackage because it tries to install firefox-3.0 although firefox-3.5 is already installed.
