[Bug 877898] Re: package firefox 7.0.1+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.11.04.1 failed to install/upgrade: ErrorMessage: package firefox is already installed and configured

[Raphaël Hertzog]

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better.  It seems that there was an error on your system when
trying to install a particular package.  Please execute the following
command, as it will clear your package cache, in a terminal:

sudo apt-get clean

Then try performing the update again.  This will likely resolve your
issue, but the failure could be caused by filesystem or memory
corruption.  So please also run a fsck on your filesystem(s) and a
memory test.   Thanks in advance!
