I made an approximate list of files in firefox-3.0 not present in firefox-3.5, using:
diff <(< firefox-3.0.filelist sed 's/-3[a-z0-9.]*/-3.*/g') <(< firefox-3.5.filelist sed 's/-3[a-z0-9.]*/-3.*/g') |
perl -nwe 'chomp; print qx(grep -x $1 firefox-3.0.filelist) if /^< (.*)$/' | sort -u >| delta-3.0-3.5
(attached)

Most files are in /usr/lib/firefox-addons/searchplugins/ (NOTE: no need to restart after restoring these files). Next, some nsSearch{Service,Suggestions}.js that seem to have been dropped in 3.5.

Only one file intrigues me: /usr/share/apport/package-hooks/firefox-3.0.py. From the script description:
Appends to apport's firefox default report: the files pluginreg.dat and
profiles.ini, and also a summary of all the extensions loaded on each firefox
profile (the summary is the extension's name, it's version, and the id)
obtained by parsing each extension's install.rdf file.

Should I this file be included in 3.5, for bug the reporting functionality?
