Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox

http://packages.ubuntu.com/gutsy/web/firefox

carries the line:

"This is a build of a random development version (aka trunk). It is ment for preview and not for production use."

This should be present only at:

http://packages.ubuntu.com/gutsy/web/firefox-3.0

and it is present there. Please remove it from the firefox 2.x package lest users get discouraged from installing firefox 2.
