The only plugin that got removed is icedtea-gcjwebpluin. the icedtea6-plugin is upgraded according to your logs. So this is either a firefox or a icedtea6-plugin bug. And please ignore comment #4, I misread that the plugin was gone entirely, when it was just not available.
-- [lucid] icedtea6-plugin becomes deselected on upgrade https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/561040 You received this bug notification because you are a member of OpenJDK, which is subscribed to openjdk-6 in ubuntu. Status in “openjdk-6” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Binary package hint: update-manager Before upgrading from Karmic to Lucid beta 2, I had the icedtea6-plugin package installed and selected, and java applets were working in firefox. After upgrading, icedtea6-plugin was deselected, and no java plugin showed up in firefox when I entered about:plugins in the URL bar. To make java applets work again, I had to do an apt-get install icedtea6-plugin to reselect the package. The package was still cached on my system; it just needed to be reselected manually.
