Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox-3.5

I'm running Kubuntu 9.04 and I would like to install Firefox 3.5. Unfortunately, the package that is available in the Ubuntu repositories lists a series of dependencies that don't make much sense. Those dependencies include gnome-app-install, gnome-icon-theme, software-properties-gtk, synaptic, etc...

It would be great if it was possible to install the Firefox 3.5 package on a KDE desktop without being forced to install a bunch of GNOME accessory packages.
