[Budo Zindovic]

Public bug reported:

This problem is the same as the one reported for Firefox 22
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/1194841). The
workaround mentioned there still works. While this problem is resolved
for the previous versions, current version of Firefox is plagued by this
bug.
