UBUNTU 9.10 WPU
FIREFOX 3.5.8

Attempting to use Google Latitude with Google Gears to track by WiFi,
the XPI download says:  "Google Gears" could not be installed because it
is not compatible with your Firefox build type (Linux_x86-gcc3). Please
contact the author of this item about the problem.

Read the bug thread and see that Google Code has a hacked Gears package.
But since Google is dropping Gears development for HTML5, Ubuntu should
adjust the repository or flush Gears.

This is a limbo legacy bug.
