Package: firefox Version: 1.99+2.0b2+dfsg-1 Severity: normal
I gave this experimental version a try. Bugs were expected, here is a long-standing one: After installing firefox, I removed ..mozilla and .firefox directories to start from scratch. When I click on a link to a .doc file, firefox suggests opening it with abiword. Fine! Then I click the box for "Do it like this from now on", hoping to never ever see this box again. At least not for .doc documents. I also get a message that I can change this in the download section of edit->settings. Interesting - for this is a problem with an earlier firefox - the download settings are there but nothing can be done about them. I "OK" this dialog, and click on another .doc file. The stupid dialog pops up again! I think it wasn't supposed to, because "do like this from now on" is still checked. But it makes no difference. Restarting firefox makes no difference either. So I try opening the settings. Surprise surprise, no download section/tab at all. Oh well, it is a beta. So I file this bug so it perhaps it isn't forgotten. Now reverting to an older firefox who also have this problem, but at least it is capable of opening pdf files too - something this beta won't do for me. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (900, 'testing'), (800, 'unstable'), (800, 'stable'), (700, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.19-rc1 Locale: LANG=nb_NO.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=nb_NO.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages firefox depends on: ii debianutils 2.17 Miscellaneous utilities specific t ii fontconfig 2.4.1-2 generic font configuration library ii libatk1.0-0 1.12.3-1 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libc6 2.3.6.ds1-4 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcairo2 1.2.4-3.1 The Cairo 2D vector graphics libra ii libfontconfig1 2.4.1-2 generic font configuration library ii libfreetype6 2.2.1-5 FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii libgcc1 1:4.1.1-13 GCC support library ii libglib2.0-0 2.12.4-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgtk2.0-0 2.8.20-3 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libjpeg62 6b-13 The Independent JPEG Group's JPEG ii libmyspell3c2 1:3.1-16 MySpell spellchecking library ii libpango1.0-0 1.14.7-1 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libpng12-0 1.2.8rel-5.2 PNG library - runtime ii libstdc++6 4.1.1-13 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libx11-6 2:1.0.3-2 X11 client-side library ii libxft2 2.1.10-3 FreeType-based font drawing librar ii libxinerama1 1:1.0.1-4.1 X11 Xinerama extension library ii libxp6 1:1.0.0.xsf1-1 X Printing Extension (Xprint) clie ii libxrender1 1:0.9.1-3 X Rendering Extension client libra ii libxt6 1:1.0.2-2 X11 toolkit intrinsics library ii psmisc 22.3-1 Utilities that use the proc filesy ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3-13 compression library - runtime firefox recommends no packages. -- debconf-show failed -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
