Mmm... So, I tried <sudo aptitude remove firefox firefox-3.0> and got

Resolving dependencies...
The following actions will resolve these dependencies:
Remove the following packages:

ubuntu-desktop
Install the following packages:
firefox-2 [2.0.0.14+2nobinonly-0ubuntu1 (hardy)]
Score is 248
Accept this solution? [Y/n/q/?]

Of course, perhaps Al's solution avoids the problem: just install
Firefox-2 alongside FF3.
