Bug Description
Binary package hint: firefox
Recently my Firefox switched from Google to ask.com for search provider. I have not upgraded packages for some time until today. This looks similar to Bug #520682 but that happened long time ago.
There are no other search providers to select and it is not obvious how to add Google back.
Clicking "Get more search engines" gets me to Mozilla addons page where I didn't manage to find "official" Google search provider.
How can I get it back ?
Also, launchpad's bug submission form sucks ass. Did it change recently? I don't remember it being so bad.
