[Bug 230662] Re: gecko-mediaplayer depends on firefox metapackage

[tensproxy]

Hello all,

I fear, this bug has arisen again:

This morning, I freshly installed xubuntu 9.10 and updated it using the Update Manager.
Then,  I removed firefox-3.5 and installed opera using the Synaptic Package Manager. 

Following the instructions on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OperaBrowser (title: Video plugins) I marked the gecko-mediaplayer for installation, applying the changes I realized that the firefox-3.5 had been marked also.
And, hence, installed firefox onto my system. 

When I marked firefox-3.5 for deletion, it would also mark the gecko-
mediaplayer for deletion.

My understanding is that there is no necessary dependency between the
two packages gecko-mediaplayer and firefox-3.5.

Regards,
