Title:
  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

Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  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.
