Subject: mozilla-firefox: old versions fail too

Package: mozilla-firefox
Version: 0.8-12
Followup-For: Bug #278475

Hi.

I'd like to add some more info about this bug. I've noticed that this
doesn't happen only with the new version, but also with older ones.

I installed mozilla-firefox-0.8-12 since the day in which it entered
testing and have kept until today, without upgrading to 0.9.3, becasue
the Spanish package wasn't there. That day, the installation went ok. I
can even add that I had to reinstall some time ago (1 month?) after
trying to install some localization archives. Well, the point is that
today I have had to install 0.9.3 from testing and it has been
impossible, because of this bug. And I have 0.9.3-5 in another system
(debian sid), so I know it can be installed. But now it is impossible.
Even downgrading to 0.8-12 is impossible.
So, what I think is that some package is buggy and, in some versions,
doesn't allow firefox to install.

I hope this can help
