The opposite argument "This still shouldn't cause Firefox to be removed.
It should result in FireFox snap being installed" is also very
reasonable. Surely the majority of people would rather continue having
their web browser there, even if differently packaged, then having it
gone.

Title:
  upgrade from 24.04 LTS to 24.10 reinstalled snap version of FireFox

Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Under 24.04 LTS I'd installed FireFox via
  https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/install-firefox-linux# and
  removed the Snap version

  I ran the standard upgrade steps from
  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OracularUpgrades/Kubuntu

  At the end of install, before reboot, "snap list" shows the firefox
  Snap is now back, and there is a "firefox" package installed.

  The /etc/apt/preferences.d/mozilla file is still there.

  I suspect this is because 3rd party packages are disabled during
  upgrade, so the 24.10 firefox package was newer ?

  This still shouldn't cause a snap reinstall. It should result in
  FireFox being removed.
