This is due to Firefox not having the KDE patches enabled on precise.  I
believe this is won't fix though, but will wait for Chris to verify.

** Package changed: kmozillahelper (Ubuntu) => firefox (Ubuntu)

Title:
  KDE Firefox Support / "kmozillahelper" is busted....AGAIN...Brings up
  GTK file dialogs.

Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  KDE Firefox Support (aka kmozillahelper) is an ld preload hack for
  Firefox that forces it to use KDE file dialogs. It has a
  predisposition to breaking every time there's a new Kubuntu
  development branch. GTK+ file dialogs make me cry. (Oh no, not really.
  They're just an eyesore.).

  This time, on Kubuntu 12.04 with Firefox 10 beta, having this
  installed does absolutely nothing and brings up GTK+ file dialogs
  instead. Bringing up the KDE Task Manager shows kmozillahelper is
  loaded and running, so it's taking up resources and not doing anything
  if the user installed it.
