Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox-3.5

According to Synaptic, I am running Firefox 3.5. According to the error window attached, I can't do my report through Firefox help because I am supposedly running Firefox 3.6. After my upgrade today (Lucid Lynx Alpha 2) I am running the following version of Firefox:

3.6+nonbinonly-0ub

which is called package firefox-3.5

I expected the URL bar to work after the upgrade. I also expected my Google toolbar to allow me to sign in. Instead, my URL bar is broken and the Google toolbar does not recognize that I have a Google account.

Please help. Having to search for sites that I already had bookmarked and then click on a link is not my cup of tea.
