Title:
  Firefox update breaks addons

Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Updates in Natty will automatically upgrade to new Firefox versions as
  if they were minor point releases. This breaks addon compatibility,
  which - in addition to being annoying - is a security issue in the
  case of security enhancing addons like Perspectives.
