** Description changed:

  The geolocation feature does not work any more on Firefox (at least on
  Ubuntu 12.04.3)
  
  Try to open for example http://html5demos.com/geo , accept geolocation
  when prompted by Firefox : it should quickly show your location on the
  map, but it never does.
  
  I'm using latest Firefox package from Ubuntu 12.04.3
- (25.0.1+build1-0ubuntu0.12.04.1) on Ubuntu 12.04.3 (amd64) with latest
- updates
+ (25.0.1+build1-0ubuntu0.12.04.1 from standard ubuntu repos) on Ubuntu
+ 12.04.3 (amd64) with latest updates
  
  I have this same behavior on 2 different computers : one with a Wifi
  card, another one without.
  
  If I download Firefox 25.0.1 from www.firefox.com and launch it, geolocation works.
- So I suspect the issue to be related to the ubuntu package
+ It also works with Chromium 30 (version 30.0.1599.114-0ubuntu0.12.04.3 from standard ubuntu repos)
+ So I suspect the issue to be related to the ubuntu package of Firefox
