Bug Description

When you search for a package using the Package search bar (included by default in Hardy) (Sorry, dont know the package name, ubufox maybe?) the search results show this text:

"You reached this site over an old URL. Depending on the exact parameters your search might work or not."

This should fix it, I don't know how to make it a deb though.
Replace the existing /usr/lib/firefox-addons/searchplugins/debsearch.src with this one.

Thanks Niklas but that didnt fix it. Tried to hack it in myself and came up with this. Seems to work perfectly. Will attempt to create a debdiff

Thank you for the fix.

We're already very close to Firefox 3.0 beta 4 so I've committed your fix in the firefox-3.0.head bzr branch.
It will be uploaded with the other fixes and improvements as soon as 3.0 beta 4 is out (code freeze planed for Feb 26th).

Im pretty sure its not (although, i have never worked with (ubu|fire)fox in Ubuntu before but the debsearch file is debian/debsearch.src, which i patched in the debdiff i posted above.
