that I've been following this bug for more than a year now. Is there

This is spyware behaviour and I was really in rage since I thought my

unprofessional.

I forgot to add that the symbolic link for "common" in /usr/lib/firefox-
addons/searchplugins needs to be changed to "en-US" instead of "." or

I don't think this is really a Mozilla issue. As per comment #23, this
happens because the path to the Ask.com search plug-in changes each time
Firefox is updated, so Firefox thinks that it is a new search plug-in
that has been installed. This is a side effect of how the Ask.com
search plug-in is
I agree with him. I myself thought for a very long time that there might
be an agreement between Canonical and Ask.com to include the search
plugin in the Ubuntu Firefox.
Is there already a bug filed in the mozilla bugtracker for this issue?

In looking into this, I discovered that the Ask.com search plugin is the
only one shipped as part of an extension. All of the other default
search plugins ship in the /usr/lib/firefox-addons/searchplugins
directory. Since each new version of Firefox is looking in a different
base directory for it
Doesn't seem to be quite the same problem. The "Ask.com" search engine
is included by default in Ubuntu, not by an extra theme. I don't have
any extra themes installed to be updated and I still experience this
issue.

Why is the "Ask.com" search plug-in packaged differently than the
"Ubuntu Package Search" search plug-in? The "Ubuntu Package Search"
plug-in does not return upon every Firefox update if it is removed. I
don't know which way is more proper to bundle search plug-ins with
Ubuntu, but it makes sense
