package kubuntu-firefox-installer (not installed) failed to install/upgrade: trying to overwrite '/usr/share/applications/firefox.desktop', which is also in package firefox 0:5.0 build1 nobinonly-0ubuntu0.10.04.1~mfs1

I am unsure as to what happened. I was installing KDM via the kubuntu-desktop metapackage, and basically the only input I had was choosing gdm as my default. When I was notified there was a crash report I simply submitted it.

0:5.0 build1 nobinonly-0ubuntu0.10.04.1~mfs1 is not an Ubuntu package, so we cannot support it, you might want to contact whoever provided that package (I reckon the ubuntu mozilla team?)
