Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

Firefox 3 final reports this are the user agent:

Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9) Gecko/2008061017 Firefox/3.0

Would be nice if it included "Ubuntu" some where like ff2 did properly.

Confirmed. I have no FF2 machine in order to confirm that FF2 reported Ubuntu...
