[Bug 355112] Re: Ask.com keeps being re-added to Firefox search bar after updates

[Aaron Kelley]

I don't think this is really a Mozilla issue.  As per comment #23, this
happens because the path to the Ask.com search plug-in changes each time
Firefox is updated, so Firefox thinks that it is a new search plug-in
that has been installed.  This is a side effect of how the Ask.com
search plug-in is included with the package.  The fix to this issue is
simple: if the Ask.com search plug-in must be included by default, it
should be put in /usr/lib/firefox-addons/searchplugins with all the rest
of the default plug-ins.
