These is even more relevant in 18.04 Bionic now that XUL extensions like Ubufox are no longer even supported in Firefox since 57.
xul-ext-ubufox should no longer be installed by default. ** Tags removed: kubuntu ** Tags added: xenial -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1274605 Title: Please demote xul-ext-ubufox from Firefox Recommends to Suggests Status in firefox package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: xul-ext-ubufox is pulled in by Kubuntu at the moment but serves little to no advantages for us. We already have a notification helper that notifies the user for restarting the system or applications when the application has been upgraded, and we have a software notification helper for installing things like flash and other plugins. It would be useful for Kubuntu if xul-ext-ubufox was demoted from a Recommends to a Suggest and a flavor could then include it in their seeds.
