[Bug 331436] [NEW] Address bar does not work after Ubuntu update

[pjesi]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

I am not sure if this is a duplicate because I can't browse the
suggested issues since Firefox it completely broken. I am surprised that
I manage to open this page through the Help -> Report a problem.

After blindly running the Ubuntu 8.10 update this morningl, Firefox
3.0.6+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.8.10.1  does not allow me to switch tabs and I
get the following error when typing into to address bar:

ASSERT: *** Search: _installLocation: engine has no file!
Stack Trace: 
0:ENSURE_WARN(false,_installLocation: engine has no file!,2147500037)

10:handleURLBarCommand([object KeyboardEvent])
11:anonymous(textentered,[object KeyboardEvent])
12:fireEvent(textentered,[object KeyboardEvent])
13:onTextEntered()


This error also happens if I prefix the address with "http://"
