Bug Description
Binary package hint: firefox
In Lucid Lynx LTS release the version of Firefox is known to not support silverlight, but it is still supplied in package availability. Stupidly, I installed it, figuring that it was fixed.
Firefox terminates immediately if you try anything other than open the home page.
The silverlight plugins should be removed from the distribution.
