Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox-3.5

I'm using firefox-3.5 on ubunty 9.04 (installed from the ubuntu-mozilla-daily repository). Today, I wasn't able to apply the update and decided to remove firefox-3.5 entirely and to reinstall it from scratch. This is what I get:

xxx@laptop:~$ sudo apt-get install firefox-3.5

E: Broken packages

There must be something wrong with the dependency on xulrunner which is however installed on my system as you can see below :

xxx@laptop:~$ dpkg -l | grep xulrunner-1.9.1
