This bug was fixed in the package firefox - 6.0+build1+nobinonly-
0ubuntu0.11.04.1

---------------
firefox (6.0+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.11.04.1) natty-security; urgency=low

  * New upstream stable release (FIREFOX_6_0_BUILD1)
    - see LP: #825459 for USN information

  * Unconditionally build with --disable-elf-hack. It's basically a noop
    on Ubuntu, as we don't get any of the nice space saving and startup
    time improvements that upstream builds get with it. Enabling it is
    problematic (it fails to build on all architectures in Ubuntu from
    Firefox 7 onwards, and is already problematic on armel when building on
    older Ubuntu versions)
    - update debian/rules
    - update debian/mozconfig.in
  * Don't unconditionally set -fshort-wchar in the libxul.pc pkgconfig file.
    It's no longer needed with newer toolchains which support gnu++0x, and
    defining it breaks the mozvoikko build
    - update debian/pkgconfig/libxul.pc.in
    - update debian/rules
  * Update globalmenu-extension to 1.0.7 release, which adds support for
    Firefox 6
  * Drop the profile migrator, as it doesn't really make any sense with the new
    release cycle, and seems to cause more trouble than it's worth. In Firefox 7,
    we want to drop the shell wrapper script anyway
    - remove debian/migrator/xulapp-profilemigrator
    - update debian/firefox.sh.in
    - update debian/firefox.install.in
    - update debian/rules
    - update debian/control.in
  * xpt_link and xpt_dump have been replaced by xpt.py
    - update debian/firefox-dev.install.in
    - update debian/firefox-dev.links.in
  * Add support for the system provided hyphenation patterns now that Firefox
    support this, by linking @MOZ_LIBDIR@/hyphenation to /usr/share/hyphen
    - update debian/firefox.links.in
  * Refreshed patches:
    - update debian/patches/firefox-kde.patch
    - update debian/patches/mozilla-kde.patch
    - update debian/patches/plugin-for-mimetype-pref.patch
    - update debian/patches/reload-new-plugins.patch
  * The official branding moved from other-licenses to browser. Handle this
    - update debian/rules
  * Dropped patches fixed upstream:
    - remove debian/patches/use-MOZ_APP_LAUNCHER-for-launcher-exec.patch
    - remove debian/patches/fix-nsGIOService.patch
    - remove debian/patches/default-browser-check-use-gio.patch
    - remove debian/patches/update-assembler-excl-arch-list.patch
    - remove debian/patches/default-uri-handler-check-use-gio.patch
    - remove debian/patches/powerpc-build-fix.patch
    - update debian/patches/series
  * Drop the special "kde.js" file handling from the pref service. It hasn't
    had the desired effect since Firefox 4, as the specialfile handling
    doesn't apply to pref files inside the omni.jar. Moving kde.js back in to
    defaults/pref isn't an option, as these are always read after the prefs
    in the omni.jar, which would mean that all users would get the KDE
    specific prefs. Note, we only override one pref in kde.js anyway, it can
    go elsewhere if really required
    - update debian/patches/mozilla-kde.patch
    - update debian/patches/firefox-kde.patch
    - note, this doesn't change any behaviour from Firefox 4 and 5, but the
      code this patch touched was rewritten in Firefox 6, so it makes more
      sense to just remove it now rather than refactor it and it stil not work

** Changed in: firefox (Ubuntu Natty)
