Interesting. Relevant debug output from DpkgTerminalLog.txt:
==> Installing the firefox snap
error: cannot perform the following tasks:
- Mount snap "firefox" (1943) (snap "firefox" assumes unsupported features:
snapd2.54 (try to update snapd and refresh the core snap))
This problem is most probably caused when dist-upgrading to Ubuntu 22.04, if
the update for firefox is installed before the update for snapd, because the
firefox snap requires snapd 2.54.
This can be fixed in the firefox deb by specifying a version for the
snapd Pre-Depends.

Bug description:
Terminal showed me how to install the missing dependencies and I was
able to follow that and get Firefox working by myself. I'd have
thought sorting missing dependencies ought to have been built in to
the upgrade program instead of coming up with a worrying report that
the upgrade had failed
