This problem still exists in 4.0~b8+nobinonly-0ubuntu2. Note, my testing process is the following:
sudo apt-get purge firefox* sudo apt-get autoremove sudo apt-get autoclean sudo apt-get install kubuntu-firefox-installer Then run:kubuntu-firefox-installer that fails with the same error message as earlier. An 'apt-get install -f' gives the following: sudo apt-get install -f Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Correcting dependencies...
