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 ??
