Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: kubuntu-firefox-installer

when I tried to install firefox via the firefox-installer I got the
following error message:

Package: /var/cache/apt/archives/firefox_4.0~b11+build3+nobinonly-0ubuntu2_amd64.deb
Error: trying to overwrite '/usr/share/applications/firefox.desktop', which is also in package kubuntu-firefox-installer 11.04ubuntu1

manually installing firefox thru kpackagekit resulted in the same message.
Removing kubuntu-firefox-installer and then installing firefox worked.
