Title:
  firefox should be removed from ubuntu-desktop-minimal since it is no
  longer a dpkg

Status in ubuntu-meta package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  When using autoinstall (https://canonical-subiquity.readthedocs-
  hosted.com/en/latest/intro-to-autoinstall.html) to do an offline
  installation of Ubuntu since 21.10, the ubuntu-desktop-minimal package
  will never be successfully installed since there is no way to prompt
  snapd to skip the Firefox installation.

  As a consequence of moving the firefox dpkg to a snap (and therefore
  online) package, the firefox application should be removed as a
  dependency of the ubuntu-desktop-minimal package and not be installed
  to enable seamless offline execution of autoinstall.
