[Bug 830911] [NEW] Firefox by default doesn't know what to do with .deb files

  Thread Previous • Date Previous • • Thread Next 
Public bug reported:

In what seems to be a rather annoying regression, Firefox doesn't know
that it should be opening .debs with USC. Installed alpha3 and did
latest updates.
