This bug was fixed in the package firefox - 8.0~b3+build1-0ubuntu1

---------------
firefox (8.0~b3+build1-0ubuntu1) precise; urgency=low

  * New upstream release from the beta channel (FIREFOX_8_0b3_BUILD1)

  [ Chris Coulson <email address hidden> ]
  * Provide a useful error message when trying to build the source package
    with an out of date control file
    - update debian/rules
  * Provide a way to prevent the source package from being built if the list
    of shipped locales changed upstream. Note that this is disabled on
    nightly and aurora
    - update debian/rules
    - add debian/extract-file.py
  * Move custom scripts to debian/build
    - move debian/get-xpi-id.py to debian/build/get-xpi-id.py
    - move debian/refresh-supported-locales.pl to
       debian/build/refresh-supported-locales.pl
    - move debian/extract-file.py to debian/build/extract-file.py
    - update debian/rules
  * Dropped patches fixed upstream:
    - remove debian/patches/build-fix-for-no-ENABLE_YARR_JIT.patch
    - remove debian/patches/compile-pldhash-as-C++.patch
    - update debian/patches/series
  * Refresh patches:
    - update debian/patches/firefox-kde.patch
    - update debian/patches/mozilla-kde.patch
    - update debian/patches/ubuntu-codes-google.patch
  * Update support for doing PGO builds:
    - Add "mk_add_options MOZ_PGO=1" to mozconfig when doing a PGO build,
      rather than changing the make target to "profiledbuild"
      - update debian/mozconfig.in
      - update debian/rules
    - Run the profiling 10 times
      - update debian/mozconfig.in
    - Don't turn off the crash reporter or force unofficial branding for PGO
      builds
      - update debian/rules
    - Don't force the compiler to gcc-4.5 when doing PGO builds. Instead,
      we will just rely on the default compiler and not enable PGO on
      Ubuntu versions which don't have a new enough toolchain
      - update debian/rules
  * Shrink the default mozconfig right down, by using defaults rather than
    forcing things like --disable-system-cairo and friends. We still retain
    the ability to override the defaults though by setting MOZ_OVERRIDE_SHLIBS
    to either "tree" or "system", but we use upstream defaults now. We also
    drop the pkg-config checks in debian/rules which allowed a fallback build
    configuration when dependencies aren't satisfied. Really, the build should
    just fail here rather than continuing in some undesirable fallback mode
    - update debian/firefox-dev.install.in
    - update debian/firefox-dev.links.in
    - update debian/mozconfig.in
    - update debian/pkgconfig/libxul.pc.in
    - update debian/control.in
    - update debian/rules
  * Refresh build-depends, as this hasn't been done for a while:
    - Drop patchutils, libxft-dev, libxinerama-dev, libgnome2-dev and bzip2.
      These don't appear to be needed
    - Drop liborbit2-dev - only appears to be required if there is no libidl
    - Add libglib2.0-dev, libext-dev, libfontconfig1-dev and libpango1.0-dev,
      as the configure script checks for these directly
    - Add minimum versions to libgconf2-dev, libgnomevfs2-dev, yasm and
      libgnomeui-dev
    - Specify minimum versions for libnspr4-dev, libcairo2-dev, libsqlite3-dev
      and libnss3-dev when using system versions of those libs
  * Disable gconf support on >= 12.04
    - update debian/rules
    - update debian/mozconfig.in
  * Refresh binary dependencies:
    - Change ubufox recommends to xul-ext-ubufox
    - Drop psmisc and fontconfig depends. We don't use any binaries
      from either of these packages
    - Drop debianutils dependency. This is an essential package
  * Disable printing of a lot of makefile commands to reduce noise. Also
    add some headers in various places
    - update debian/rules
  * Introduce a branch-specific config file (debian/config/branch.mk) which
    will hold settings that are tied to a specific branch, and which shouldn't
    be merged between branches when merging new Firefox versions (eg, whether
    the crash reporter should be enabled on a branch). The idea is to confine
    these types of settings to a single file
    - add debian/config/branch.mk
    - update debian/rules
  * Move debian/locales.* to debian/config
    - move debian/locales.shipped => debian/config/locales.shipped
    - move debian/locales.unavail => debian/config/locales.unavail
    - move debian/locales.blacklist => debian/config/locales.blacklist
    - update debian/rules
    - update debian/build/refresh-supported-locales.pl
  * Move debian/testsuite.mk to debian/build
  * Don't open about:blank from the New Window quicklist entry
    - update debian/firefox.desktop.in
  * We need to keep the complete list of language packs (shipped and
    transitional) in sync between branches. However, this was proving to be
    difficult because the list was split across 2 files (locales.shipped
    and locales.unavailable). Rework this so that we have a locales.all
    (containing the list of current and past language packs), and a
    locales.shipped. The locales.all can be easily kept in sync between
    branches now, so we end up with the correct transitional language packs
    on branches which have some languages disabled. This also makes it
    more complicated to add the language packs to debian/control though, so
    we offload this to a new perl script now rather than trying to do it all
    in bash
    - add debian/build/dump-langpack-control-entries.pl
    - update debian/build/refresh-supported-locales.pl
    - add debian/config/locales.all
    - update debian/config/locales.shipped
    - remove debian/config/locales.unavailable
    - update debian/control
    - update debian/rules
  * Touch debian/control.in during clean to force a refresh of debian/control,
    so we can check if it is out-of-date and fail if it is
    - update debian/rules
  * Ensure that we get the correct package relationships depending on the
    target distro version
    - update debian/control.in
    - update debian/rules
    - refresh debian/control
  * Drop the mozilla-devscripts dependency. We were only using this for creating
    tarballs anyway. Instead, implement our own get-orig-source target, which
    also fixes some problems we were having
    - update debian/control.in
    - remove debian/moz-rev.sh
    - update debian/rules
    - remove debian/mozclient/firefox.mk
    - remove debian/mozclient/firefox.conf
    - update debian/config/branch.mk
    - add debian/build/create-source
    - add debian/build/get-orig-source.mk
  * Drop the 'nobinonly' suffix from the version number. All this really does
    is make the version number longer without adding any useful information,
    because:
    - We don't strip all binary files as there are a lot remaining which are
      used by the test-suite (eg, images, fonts, videos, sqlite dbs, extensions)
    - Stripping binary files from the source tarball isn't the only change we
      make to it. We also merge in the upstream l10n data, but we don't
      indicate that in the version number
  * Keep a copy of shipped-locales outside of the embedded tar.bz2. This
    makes it faster to verify the list of shipped locales when creating
    source packages
    - update debian/build/create-tarball.py
    - update debian/build/extract-file.py
    - update debian/rules
  * When calling refresh-supported-locales, automatically refresh
    debian/control too
    - update debian/rules
  * Don't fail to create the tarball if locales listed in all-locales don't
    really exist upstream. We already check that everything in shipped-locales
    exists
    - update debian/build/create-tarball.py
  * Refresh shipped locales for beta
  * Don't fail to create a tarball when not using a local cache
    - update debian/build/create-tarball.py
  * Modify the UA string to add "Ubuntu" to the platform component
    - add debian/patches/ubuntu-ua-string-changes.patch
    - update debian/patches/series
    - update debian/rules
