[Chris Coulson]

The error is here:

update-alternatives: error: cannot stat /var/lib/dpkg/alternatives/gnome-text-editor: Input/output error
dpkg: error processing firefox (--configure):
 subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 2

Reassigning to dpkg

** Package changed: firefox (Ubuntu) => dpkg (Ubuntu)
