[Bug 1992688] Re: firefox deb not installed

[Brian Murray]

Additionally, the firefox deb is not in the manifest for Ubuntu 22.04.1.

** Summary changed:

- firefox deb not installed after upgrade to kinetic
+ firefox deb not installed

** Description changed:

- I upgraded from jammy to kinetic and the firefox deb is not installed.
+ Bug 1964036 leads me to believe that the firefox deb provides some
+ important functionality (the firefox favourite icon in the gnome shell
+ dock) but there is nothing that would force the deb to be installed and
+ the package description indicates that it can be safely removed. Is
+ there some important functionality that it provides?
