This bug was fixed in the package firefox - 11.0+build1-0ubuntu1
---------------
firefox (11.0+build1-0ubuntu1) precise; urgency=low
* New upstream stable release (FIREFOX_11_0_BUILD1)
* Clean up search plugin installation now that we build our own
language packs:
- Drop the recursive symlink from /usr/lib/firefox-addons/searchplugins,
which lintian kept complaining about
- Don't effectively symlink distribution/searchplugins to searchplugins,
as they have different layouts and this avoids the same data being
iterated over twice
- Revert to the upstream layout in distribution/searchplugins
- Simplify distro-locale-searchplugins.patch, as we don't need to swap the
loading order of common / locale-specific searchplugin paths now.
$LIBDIR/distribution/searchplugins/common is no longer a symlink
to $LIBDIR/searchplugins, so there is no need to have the ability for
locale-specific plugins to override common ones. They already override
those in $LIBDIR/searchplugins
- add debian/firefox-locale.preinst.in, which will end up in all
language packs to assist the symlink -> folder transition
- update debian/firefox.dirs.in
- update debian/firefox.install.in
- update debian/firefox.links.in
- update debian/firefox.preinst.in
- update debian/patches/distro-locale-searchplugins.patch
- update debian/rules
* Fix LP: #807733 - Firefox doesn't restart after upgrades where the version
changes. Don't include the version number in the install path, as Firefox
cannot re-exec itself. In doing this, we also move the distribution.ini
back in to our installation directory, as that never made sense in
/usr/lib/firefox-addons
- update debian/firefox-dev.install.in
- update debian/firefox-dev.links.in
- update debian/firefox-locale.preinst.in
- update debian/firefox.lintian-overrides.in
- update debian/firefox.preinst.in
- update debian/rules
* Expose distribution/extensions in /usr/lib/firefox-addons, to allow
administrators to add extensions that they want to add to default user
profiles, and that they want the addon manager to keep updated. We lost
this functionality when upgrading from Firefox 3.6, due to the loss of
/etc/firefox/profile
- update debian/firefox.dirs.in
- update debian/firefox.install.in
- update debian/firefox.links.in
- update debian/firefox.postinst.in

Title:
Firefox doesn't restart after upgrades where the version changes
Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in “firefox” source package in Oneiric:
Triaged
Bug description:
When you click the restart button in Firefox after a version upgrade
(like 5->6, 3.6.17->3.6.18, but not 8.0~a1~hg20110707r72459 ->
8.0~a1~hg20110708r72522), Firefox doesn't restart. This functionality
works normally after addons are installed. The problem is the path
changes to the Firefox binary.
