[Bug 226454] [NEW] Firefox start triggers a Wine start

[David Kolossa]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

Since today, whenever I start Firefox, wine does start with it.
I can see the wine desktop window before the Firefox window is open, but it closes a short time after.

When I execute the command "ps -A" immediately after clicking the
starter of Firefox, I can see the processes firefox, wineserver,
services.exe and explorer.exe. After a very short time (approximately 2
seconds, only the firefox process is still there and the wine processes
are gone)

Of course I'm using the Linux version of firefox in the repositories
(package version 3.0~b5+nobinonly-0ubuntu3) and I wonder why Firefox
needs wine to start so that the wine desktop appears.
