Thanks, I've got it now.

I'm looking at your diff, and I'm a little concerned at how you chose to
close this bug.  Making the maintainer script exit 0 is not an overriding
goal; it's much more important to first ensure that the maintainer script
succeeds in *doing what it's supposed to*.  Given your solution to ignore
the return value of update-mozilla-firefox-chrome, I'm not at all confident
that this is happening.

I still don't understand why this bug occurs.  It is not possible through
normal operation that the mozilla-firefox package is removed before the
locale packages that depend on it -- I was hoping to see something in your
patch that would explain what was really happening here, but instead you
seem to have punted on the question.

I'm not willing to sponsor this upload for you without at least an
understanding of why ignoring the errors from update-mozilla-firefox-chrome
does *not* leave the system in a broken state.
