Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox

the xforms plugin 0.8.0.3 (found at
https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/824) does not work with the
ubuntu version of firefox. it does install without errors, however it
fails to work.

test cases (after installation of the plugin) can be found at
http://www.mozilla.org/projects/xforms/samples.html

this is likely a compilation / configration error in the ubuntu version
of firefox since downloading the corresponding official firefox version
(2.0.0.11) (from http://www.mozilla-europe.org/de/products/firefox/) and
running it with a new profile (./firefox -ProfileManager), installing
the xforms plugin (including firefox restart) then quitting the official
firefox, starting ubuntu's firefox with the newly created profile et
violĂ  the test cases work.
