Package: firefox
Version: 2.0+dfsg-1
Severity: grave
Hello,
the preinst script of firefox does the following:
for dir in /usr/lib/firefox/icons /usr/lib/firefox/searchplugins \
/usr/lib/firefox/res /usr/lib/firefox/chrome
/usr/lib/firefox/defaults \
/usr/lib/firefox/greprefs ; do
if [ -d "$dir" ]; then
rm -rf "$dir"
fi
done
So now, when I already have iceweasel installed and then install firefox
(to get the dependencies for sun-java5-plugin, see bug #399553), these
symlinks (or directories) are removed. That prevents iceweasel from
starting.
Maybe instead of
if [ -d "$dir" ]; then
use
if [ ! -h "$dir"] && [ -d "$dir" ]; then
??
Best regards
Uwe
