+</I>Another problem was that f.ex. our language pack was shown as:
+
+ Installed by: 3rd party.
+
+which would have given a bad impression.
+Otherwise this new &quot;feature&quot; of firefox doesn't make sense on linux,
+if you have some systemwide installed plugins, then root must have
+installed them, and if you don' trust root anymore, then we can throw
+our whole security system out the door :)
+
+Sorry that the update took so long, for reference the update itself
+was available in SVN since Nov. 6, but there were various issues
+that needed to be fixed, and dmorgan was busy as always (no offense)
+so in order to get out a properly working update, it took a bit more time.
