[Bug 239274] [NEW] after installing firefox-3.0 beta 5 through synaptic, virtually every page comes accompanied with a huge assert window

[Afton]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

sites tried: mail.google.com, reddit.com, http://en-us.www.mozilla.com
/en-US/firefox/about, google.com

I have succesfully navigated to zero pages on my own (although I got
here, didn't I!) that didn't invoke the following assert failure:

ASSERT: *** Search: _installLocation: engine has no file!
Stack Trace:
