Comment 2 for bug 496839

Still no response... is nobody else having this problem? It happens to me in clean installs consistently. It happens in Jaunty and Karmic.

Steps to reproduce:
1. install ubuntu
2. upgrade xulrunner to 1.9.1

I found a workaround, but I don't like it.

I commented out some of the conditionals in the postinst script, effectively forcing actions to be taken regardless of the reason postinst was called. I suppose the best way to do this would be to download the deb, extract it, change the script, repack and then install; but it works just as well to install xulrunner, fail, edit the script from dpkg/info/, and then install again.

I am at work at the moment, so I will post the modified file when I get home.
