Thank you for testing. This indicates a bug, it is definitively wrong to
link against something that is only provided by a -dev package, and also
it is wrong that the plugin links to xulrunner in the first place (it is
not needed for firefox-2).

Bug description:
Java plugin is not registered with Firefox 2, only Firefox 3.

Solution:  In sun-java6-plugin.postinst script, extend the

browser_dirs="xulrunner-addons"

variable by "firefox" or "firefox-addons".

whichever is right.
