Bug Description

Alhough
https://launchpad.net/~mozillateam/+archive/firefox-stable?field.series_filter=maverick
lists Firefox in version 8.0 for Ubuntu 10.10 (Maverick),
there is not really available in pool: see
http://ppa.launchpad.net/mozillateam/firefox-stable/ubuntu/pool/main/f/firefox/
There is only 7.0.1.

Second problem is when I tried install manually package
https://launchpad.net/~mozillateam/+archive/firefox-stable/+files/firefox_8.0+build1-0ubuntu0.10.10.1~mfs1_i386.deb
it shows error message:
"Breaks existing package 'hunspell-en-ca' that conflict: 'iceweasel'. But the '/home/roman/_warea/_dl/firefox_8.0+build1-0ubuntu0.10.10.1~mfs1_i386.deb' provides it via: 'gnome-www-browser,iceweasel,www-browser' "
Note: I do not need canadian-english-hunspell, but it is suprisingly needed for czech language support for Maverick.

Thank you for reporting this. Moving this to the PPA bugs project since it's unlikely it affects stuff in the archive.
Publishing is disabled at the moment on the stable PPA. We're waiting for everything to build before reenabling. As for the second issue, I'm wondering what would happen when you're offered the upgrade after it's available in the archive. Also, do you have 7.0.1 installed currently?
