Comment 4 for bug 228044

1. firefox 2 users in hardy are "obliged" by the current mozilla-mplayer package to download firefox 3
2. The bug has been fixed in intrepid by changing the required dependency from the firefox metapackage to the explicit firefox-3.0 | firefox-2 binaries
3. Patch for hardy is attached
4. The bug can be reproduced by removing firefox 3 and installing firefox 2 and then by installing mozilla-mplayer
5. There is no regression potential, appropriate symlinks are already in place since the package was migrated to firefox 3 just recently
