           Summary: Installing kubuntu-docs breaks Firefox
           Product: Ubuntu
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: kubuntu-docs
        AssignedTo: debzilla at ubuntu.com
        ReportedBy: asheesh at asheesh.org
         QAContact: kubuntu-bugs at lists.ubuntu.com


When I open Firefox after installing kubuntu-docs, it complains:

"The file /usr/share/ubuntu-artwork/home/index.html cannot be found.  Please
check the location and try again."

The package kubuntu-docs dpkg-diverts /usr/share/ubuntu-artwork/home/index.html
to /usr/share/ubuntu-artwork/home/index-ubuntu.html .  Unfortunately, that means
there is no file at /usr/share/ubuntu-artwork/home/index.html.  And Firefox's
default home page is that file.  So every time I open a new window, Firefox
complains it can't open the default start page.

If you are going to divert that file away, then make *sure* there is something
at index.html so Firefox doesn't go haywire like this.  My users now hate my
annoying Firefox setup. :-(
