Publication date

Overview
Fixed Firefox packages for USN-149-1
Releases
Details
USN-149-1 fixed several vulnerabilities in the Firefox web browser.
Unfortunately that update introduced a lot of regressions, especially
when using extensions, so another update is necessary. The new
packages ship Firefox version 1.0.6 which should now work well with
most extensions (one known exception is the package
"mozilla-tabextensions").
We apologize for the inconvenience.
