cannot uninstall obsolete xulrunner fr (for 3.0)

[Alain Baeckeroot]

Binary package hint: firefox-3.5

I upgraded from jaunty to karmic-beta, so FF was upgraded from 3.0 to 3.5
Now FF3.5 contains obsolete stuff from 3.0 and its impossible to uninstall it:

in Tools > additional modules > languages
- xulrunner 1.9.0.8 (fr and en-GB)
- FF 3.0.7 (fr and en-GB)

this modules are marcked by a red icon (forbidden or alike)

I remove xulstuff 1.9.0 with aptitude, but FF does not see it
