Basically I created the package, installed it and after that I'm upgrading the firefox package, I get the following messages in the log:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------- # apt-get dist-upgrade Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Calculating upgrade... Done The following packages will be upgraded: firefox 1 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded. Need to get 0 B/41.6 MB of archives.

So will it work in the way it should or not?
