[Bug 641099] Re: package firefox-branding 3.6.9+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.10.04.1 failed to install/upgrade: trying to overwrite '/usr/share/pixmaps/firefox.png', which is also in package firefox-2 99:2.0.0.21~tb.21.308+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.8.04.1

"trying to overwrite '/usr/share/pixmaps/firefox.png', which is also in
package firefox-2 99:2.0.0.21~tb.21.308+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.8.04.1"

firefox-2 is no longer shipped in the archive, and we have transitional
packages in place to migrate users properly and prevent this problem.
However, the version number of the firefox-2 package there suggests that
it has been repacked unofficially by somebody to add an epoch (99). This
bumps the version much higher than firefox 3.6, and I assume this is to
subvert the mechanism we already have in place to migrate users (and
prevent this bug).

Closing this, as it is a user problem rather than a bug

** Changed in: firefox (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Invalid
