Sequence of events:
1, got notification of updates available, so I clicked to open Update 
Manager
2. included in update set was Thunderbird, but it failed to install
3. read details by clicking 'twisty', and found the xulrunner 1.9 issue
4. Used Synaptic Package Manager (SPM) to install xulrunner 1.9, failed
5. Used SPM to generate the download script for xulrunner (one liner 
using wget), and ran it
6. Used SPM to install xulrunner .deb; it failed
7. Panel showed message about crash, so followed the steps - first time 
I've ever reported a bug (I thought it was for Thunderbird, but it seems 
it was for xulrunner). Thunderbird install was the causing event, so I 
reported under that.
8. Panel showed another crash (I thought for xulrunner, but seems to be 
the Thunderbird one). It seems appropriate to report at lowest level of 
package, since other apps also depend on xulrunner.
9. All attempts to install updates since (and more keep coming in), all 
fail with xulrunner issue. No point reporting them! I don't know how to 
fix it, at least, not yet.

Sorry if double post causes problems, but both install groups need to
know!
