[Bug 842420] [NEW] package firefox 3.6.20+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.10.04.1 failed to install/upgrade: malsukcesis legi staton (dereference) de ekzistanta symlink '/usr/bin/abrowser': Permission denied

 

Public bug reported:

I just did a "sudo apt-get update" and then "sudo apt-get upgrade".
I do have a firefox installation in my home directory with firefox 6.0.1 (to have the latest version) and /usr/bin/firefox linked to it (through a custom script). I guess that might cause problems during upgrades.
