Bug Description

Binary package hint: ubufox

If Sage is selected from Ubufox to be installed, after restarting Firefox it does not appear in any of the Extension menus, nor do its features show up in Firefox. Sage is then also missing from the listing in the Ubufox dialog (I checked all the filters).

dpkg.log does not report any failures:

2007-10-24 08:30:02 install firefox-sage <none> 1.3.10-2
2007-10-24 08:30:02 status half-installed firefox-sage 1.3.10-2

and nor does /var/log/apt/term.log:

I've installed the Sage from Synaptic on Gusty with all updates.
It appears in Synaptic as installed, but still it doesn't work with Firefox (2.0.0.12).

In this case, maybe the bug is caused by the Sage plugin package, not by ubufox?
